Don't get hung up on Boom Audio watts. Some manufacturers play games with the numbers.
Just realize the Boom stuff has to come off totally.
What speakers are you wanting to replace? Fairing and lids? Fairing and lowers? Fairing, lids , and lowers?
Edit: NM I agree with tedoff.
Might look at vtwin audio for the 6x9 adapters.

The watt rating on your Harley system is extremely exaggerated. As far as those Mmat speakers go, they'll take up to 150 watts all day long. The setup that has been suggested will blow away what you have now, regardless of the watt ratings.

Fairing and lids. They are the only speakers I have.
One thing of note. You'll have to modify your fairing speaker pods to get the mmats to fit. I cut a relief in mine, but they can also be heated and reshape . And you'll have to flip the speakers upside down as well. No big deal.
Ok here it is in a nutshell. I'm breaking out the crayons just for you. First of all it's not called SERIAL...it's SERIES. So let's say you're running 4ohm speakers, each on their own channel getting 150 watts each. Doing this the way you are suggesting, 4ohm in SERIES to another 4ohm speaker, creates an 8ohm load. Running that on one channel you have effectively cut your power to each of those speakers in half.
