[QUOTE="shackles, post: 7882071, member: 643897"] Why is it that electronics places are always trying to sell you on a new HU? There must be big profit in those. IMO If your just looking to make the system work and sound ok then replace the wrecked speakers and upgrade the factory ones which are probably cheap and past their prime. For 2 1/2" ones, either don't use them or put caps inline with them for high midrange duty only. They may add spaciousness to the sound stage. If you want to add a little punch get a space saving sub and an amp which will give you the thump that small speakers can't. Here's the smallest 10" sub unit that I could find and with moderate power (360WRMS), and a moderate cost which pumps out some pretty decent lows. Not earth shattering but clean. You wouldn't want too much anyway without upgrading everything else too. It all fits in the very limited space behind the seat in my crewcab.
