Decent Sound with Big Motor?

Decent Sound with Big Motor?
A couple of questions regarding a sound system for my 2005 FLH.
My Sony HU gave it up a couple of years ago. At the time I was running a lower line set of Infinity's in the fairing with an ARC 2 channel mini. I haven't had any tunes since and have also upgraded the motor to a 120". The sound before on my 98" was what I would classify as just okay putting around the back roads, not too hot when going much over 55 MPH.
Is it crazy to think I could have some decent sound while cruising the freeway with a 120" motor?
Thanks,
Rick

We're going to need some additional info. What's your budget? What is your ultimate goal? When you did the motor did you upgrade to the high output charging system?
As a side question, what exhaust are you running that you don't think you'll be able to hear the audio going down the road?

I've been researching this a bit lately and have pretty much decided the BT 7.1's would be the way to go, maybe the BT 4 channel amp. I do frequently run with a TP so I would add pods but I want to be able to hear it decently with just the fairing speakers if possible.
Thanks,

Thanks for the tip on the group buy. This might be the way to get started. I'm thinking the 4180 amp with the Pro speakers for the fairing and add the TP pods later. I'm thinking a Kenwood HU. My Sony crapped out and was covered under warranty with another one that crapped out. I've always run Kenwoods in my cars so I think I'll go with tried and true. Now I just need to pick one out.
