Default Is this a decent setup

I have the sound stream reserve hdhu.14si, a dsr1 a set of Hertz sx690 in the bags. A set of wdx6moto-cd in the fairing. And a set of cicada chx65.2 in the tour pack pods. A soundstream pn4.1000D and a mmats lsx1400x4.
I was thinking I could run the chx65.2 off channels 1 and 2 of the mmats at 2ohms. And run the sx690s off 3 and 4 at 4ohms. Then use the soundstream for the fairing speakers bridged at 4 ohms. I'm not against getting rid of the soundstream amp for something different. Anyone have any input?

For starters the PN4 and the LSX amps will be a very tight fit in the fairing. The DSR-1 can be glitchy and some introduce noise into the system.
You will not need a ton of power to the MOTO CD speakers as they are very efficient and get loud quick.

You could get away with running the complete system off of 1 amp if you chose by paralleling the fairing and tp speaker for a 2 ohm load on channels 1&2 and the 6x9 off the other 2 channels.
