Ive never heard that about the stock amp
The only reason they arent plug and play is because the stock speakers have a harness that it plugs into where it then goes into the amp but you can easily just cut the connector off and splice the aftermarket speakers onto the wires and they will work just fine.
leave the stock amp alone unless you really have the time to decipher which wire is which
but imo the stock amp is really good
