This would connect to the factory HU if there is no amplifier, or if there is an amplifier it will connect to that on the speaker outputs. With MS-8 you will perform some quick measurements with the included microphones to get an Un-EQ'd and flattened signal to then retune to your liking.  Most stock sound systems are not actually plagued by terrible speakers, it's the tuning provided by the factory that is a bigger issue. They have their compromises to make and just like with car audio shops, a good tuner is uncommon.$500 for 2 sets of speakers and an amplifier is do-able, but I think it will lead to disappointment because of your lack of tuning controls.</blockquote>
