Default Will this setup play nice together?

I have a 2011 ultra with a Aquatic AV HU that hasn't been installed yet. I'm trying to gather the rest and put it all in at once. I'm going to include some Amazon links. Just need to know if these options A) will play nicely together B) get the job done.
In regards to getting the job done, I just want good sound and sound that I can hear comfortably at highway speeds. I don't need to be the loudest most amazing sound on the block.
The prices of these items will give you an idea of where I'm sitting at with my budget. I am currently more concerned about getting the right speakers that will fit and not suck than I am about getting the amp. But I know everyone will tell me to get an amp or bust.

Speakers Speakers
will 6.5" work in the tour pack AND Fairing provided I have the right adapter ring?

Amp Amp

Aside from the mounting adapters and wiring will that work? Are those speakers junk?

Thanks guys!

Those speakers are ok for what your trying to do. The amp I would not choose over a nvx vamd4 or a cerwin Vega b54. I've had all 3 and soundstream did not last

OK I'll check those out. I thought I have seen the soundstreams on here as recommended which is why I picked that one at that price.

Been watching YouTube videos. Are line-out converters only needed on 14 and up bikes or will I need that too?

Not if your new HU has preamp outputs

The sound stream you should look at is. PN4.1000d it is a budget beast. I would take the Stinger SPX700X4 as it saves your FM and is only a couple of Dollars more.

I ran the Hogtune amp and speakers with my Aquatic AV stereo and it blows my CVO RG ultra stereo out of the water.

Those speakers I am looking at are rated at 100w rms. The PN4. 1000d puts out about 140w rms. Is that going to cause an issue? The Stinger is higher as well at 125 rms x4 at 4ohms.

Then you dial back the gain to accommodate the speakers.
