Default amp question

i know there are a ton of questions about amps so if im repeating im sorry. i did a search and cant seem to find the answer. i have decided to go with an arc amp but not sure which model. i have a 2004 ultra with 7.25 j&ms in the fairing and j&m 5.25s in the rear, and i believe these are 8 ohm speakers. im wodering if i should go with the 125x4 or the 125x2 and just hook the four speakers up together on 2 channels. im not real savvy on this type of stuff and i would appreciate any help and or suggestions. also id like to keep the mounting of the amp inside the fairing. thanks.

I think J & M will be coming out with a plug & play amp sometime in the next few weeks. It might be worthwhile to contact J & M first to see whats best for their speakers.
