Hi all. I'm thinking about upgrading my system--nothing fancy, my old ears can't handle it anymore. Perhaps just some components for the fronts, a small amp, and maybe a small sub to round everything out. I care more about (budget friendly) sound quality than super loud music or teeth rattling bass. I drive a 21 Accord 2.0T. I basically want to keep this upgrade as close to factory as possible because of all the integrated tech on the factory stereo.
Here's what I'm thinking:
Components: Hertz DSK 165.3 for the fronts at $229 per pair (or maybe Focal Performance 165AS for $379 on Crutchfield but that seems overpriced for their access line)
Amp: Focal AP4340 for $225 or JL Audio JD400/4 for $280
Sub: Kicker 44TCWC102 for $145 on Crutchfield or something similar.
I've only ever upgraded components so adding an amp & sub is going to be a new experience for me. What do you guys think? Will the amp I've selected be enough to power both the components & a small sub?
Thanks for your input.
