Default Continuing saga, 6 speakers 2 amps?

15 RGS currently running the stock HU, arc moto 600.4 powering 2 Arc moto 602s in the fairing, and another set of 602s in the lowers. I have a set of lids coming, made to take 6x9s. I have a set of Arc moto 692s coming for that. I kinda added the lids to an order for the extended bags and fender at the last minute. Not 100% sure that I am gonna run them yet. Kinda depends on what I will have to do to power the speakers in them. I'm guessing a smaller 2 channel amp would be what I need. Not sure that I want to give up bag space for one, since I pack the bags when I travel. My tour pak isn't mounted most of the time either.
What are some suggestions for an amp to power the lid Arc moto 692s? Where would you mount them and how would you wire them?
While I don't have an unlimited budget, I'm willing to spend what I need to, but am still a cheap bastard at heart.

I have the J/L 280/4 in between the left speaker pod and radio support, also have the Arc 600.4 under the radio so both do fit, just have to reroute a few wires. I mounted heavy duty velcro to the side of the radio support and amp then ran a zip tie the long way to hold the amp up against the metal support that the speaker pod bolts to, doesn't move...
