Time for some new tunes

Looking at an Aquatic AV stereo for my '09 Ultra. I see it puts our 288 watts. Can the oem speakers handle it well? I'm not one to crank it up, but do appreciate hearing the music when riding. And according to the site I'm looking at, its plug n play easy to swap. Is it truly?

The Aquatics radio puts out a decent amount of power, but also alot of distortion ,,,,,

best way to connect it is RCA-RCA direct using a good amp ,,, not a cheap little one that overexaggerates its RMS power output ,,,,,

You will need to replace the OEM speakers they are 2 ohms probably dry rotten also. I had the sony xbt-70 also used it 1 season good radio but I changed to this sony ax 7000.
