[QUOTE="keep_hope_alive, post: 8211946, member: 576029"] you have the integrated head unit with Sync? with some modern vehicles, the head unit is too integrated to make replacing it a reasonable option (at a budget). a factory upgrade should consist of new front components, modest sub(s), and an amp (or amps if necessary). most modern amps have high level inputs to eliminate the need for a LOC. i could build a very decent system if buying used gear. if you want it all for $600 then I wouldn't spend more than $100 for a sub, have $300 to spend on amp(s), and $200 for front speakers. a single 10" can be plenty for a small car if properly implemented (like rear corner).
