[QUOTE="mcsoul, post: 4823496, member: 588440"] I've finally decided to upgrade my Altima stereo. When I first got the car I fell in love with the steering wheel controls, so I kept my stock stereo and tried to make it louder. Now I'm over that shit. I put PAC speaker level to RCA adapters on and ran a few crappy amps and 2 10" Bazooka subs. It has been less than stellar for the last 2 years, but way louder than stock. Up front I've got some clarion components, and clarion 6x9 coax's in back.
