I've put some after market speakers in the front and rear doors as the standard ones went past there sell by date if you no what I mean I had more sound from my phone speaker hhah but the aftermarket ones all worked fine with the standard stereo just no sound with the after market one
But does it have a Harmon Kardon name plate on the tweeter housing? If so it has an amplifier under the passenger, which needs a special harness to make it work.

One of Nodge68's posts https://www.landyzone.co.uk/land-rover/what-colour-wire-is-the-amplifier-turn-on-on-hk.313258/ referring to the HK unit
It's a visteon it says on the actuall headunit and there is an amplifier under the passenger seat,, all I wanted to do was connect my phone haha
So you need the correct wiring harness, or the amplifier doesn't get any music to send to the speakers.

Can you not bypass the amp if the new head unit has sufficient power to drive the speakers?
In theory, but that doesn't help power the subwoofer, unless another off the shelf amplifier is installed to drive it.
