[QUOTE="Slayer16102, post: 8785011, member: 676644"] The vehicle is 2001 Z06 Corvette w/ 110 amp alternator - The max box size it can support in full size subs is two 10" subs. My budget is $500-$1000. I'm not looking to compete. I just want a pretty decent system in my car that would sound nice and have some good bass. The headunit currently in the car is a Pioneer 6800BS it works fine - Should I keep it or upgrade to something better? I don't mess with EQ settings at all. I just set it and leave it on powerful or flat. I mainly just adjust my HFP and LPF settings and thats it. I mainly use AM/FM radio stations or youtube to listen to all of my music. I primarily listen to rap, rock, pop, alternative, bass tracks, and techno. The door speakers in the front are Kicker CSC654 6.5" two way speakers - Should I keep them or upgrade to something better? They don't seem to have much midbass at all eventhough the polarity is right. The default corvette speakers have a black box on the back. I am guessing this was an amplifier of some sort for midbass. They came with 3" tweeters and an 8 inch sub in the doors. When the car was modified they put alpline SPS-610C's in the front doors, but I'm not sure if this was an upgrade or if the factory bose was actually better. I would like to know what you guys think here. I can always repurchase the bose speakers again if needed. The SPS-610C's died eventually so I put the Kicker CSC654's in the doors for now. I'm open to changing the speakers again though. Just remember I am currently running my door speakers without an amp so take that into consideration when suggesting a new set of speakers. The rear speakers in the back are unknown. I'm not sure if they were ever upgraded. I currently have no subwoofer or amp, so I am looking for a good setup in 8's or 10's that would hit in my car while sticking within my budget, but also not overstressing my car's stock electrical system.
