Default Amp question

I just replaced the speakers in my Street glide with a set of Hog tunes. They sound better but will still distort when I turn the volume all the way up. I think I need an amp. Can anyone suggest an amp that will power just he front speakers?

I was thinking about an amp also just to run my front speakers on my SG. I put in a pair of Infinity Kappa speakers and am very happy with them but want moreThe hog tunes are a little pricey and was wondering if just a car audio amp would work o.k. I have one just laying around and thought I might just try it. Anyone know if a car audio amp will work fine?

Where does the amp mount, under the faring or someplace else. Have been considering one in the near future

rollover, what amp did you use?

I was thinking of buying the wiring harness that plugs into the HK unit and then just hardwiring the car amp into the harness. I was also wondering about a plug and play car audio amp and am curious what you used.
