If your thinking that you would bridge the PN4 520 to get the 260 rms x 2...you could only use the 4 ohm speaker which is the Polk mm652...Infinitys are 2 ohm , 520 is only stable bridged at 4 ohm's I think!! AD CX 62's will also work!

I didn't know those would fit in the pods without modification. That's why I didn't mention them.

Very true. Sorry about that. The soundstream pn2.350d would be great for kappas. Pn4.520d would work for everything else

Here you go:
B-52 amp- $135
Polk mm 652- $150 or kappas about the same price.
Biketronics bt355 LL- $80
Mis. wiring and connectors- $25.
Total- $390 based on amazon pricing. Can be had cheaper.
This is just one option that is proven and will sound good.
I just did this with the Kappas, and came in around $320-330. I also used the Hogtunes amp tray, I think it was $30. I find that I'm not turning the volume ALL the way up when I'm on the freeway. So far I'm pretty happy with it.

Get a Diamond Micro 4v2 amp and some Hertz speakers or check out the MPAK from ARC Audio. Stock anything is garbage.

Hertz will not fit in the pods without modifications.
