Default boom amp and speakers

I have a 2012 street glide and I am looking to purchase a Boom amp with new fairing speakers and saddlebag speakers ( all Boom). I have read that some have installed a small amp in the saddlebag to power the saddlebag speakers. Is the under faring Boom amp enough to power the two faring speakers and the two saddlebag speakers or do I need to purchase two amps.

I have 4 B00m speakers on my Ultra along with the Hogtunes 40x4 big ultra amp and the sound is good. I can clearly hear the music doing 85 down the freeway.

I bought the boom amp (mounts under the tour pack) and speaker upgrade (2 speakers in fairing and 2 for the passenger) for my ultra limited when I bought my bike last month (so I can't speak about the saddlebag speakers). I have no complaints at all. Took a trip from Melbourne to Key West, and the music was clear as can be at 80+ mph. I think it is an expensive upgrade, but one that I think will be worth it in the long run. I also had the XM receiver installed, which was another good choice for a touring bike. Like I said had it all done by dealer when I bought the bike, so it has the warranty.
