Does anyone know what the output is on factory speakers? I got a new deck, and I''''m wondering if I should get some Alpines or just leave them stock. I''ve got a year 2000.

5W.
Get new speakers, ASAP...they will make SUCH a big difference. With Alpines, get a high sensitivity rating ~90dB (higher the better) unless you plan on amping them.

I think an amp is a little out of my price range. Plus, I don''t want something really incredibly powerful, but I do want a good bit of heavy bass and clean, crisp sound. I''m thinking that a new deck and good speakers will accomplish that? Cause the deck I got is already pumping the **** out of my stock speakers! Nothing starts rattling, but when I pump the bass all the way, you can really feel it in your ribcage. Do you guys suggest Alpine, Infinity, or what? I don''t want something super-pricey, but I also want people to say "whoa."
Also, how hard is it to install your own speakers (I have never done it before)? I also have very little experience with wiring and whatnot. Should I shell $90 for best buy to do them, or can I probably get it done somewhere else for cheaper?

Sometimes BBY and other stores will throw in free installation with purchase of a head unit, just FYI...

speaker installation is as simple as it gets. remove, replace, connect harness. post wont let me go into detail.

Still a dismal 15W. Get new front speakers. it made a huge difference when i put my alpines in.

Well I think I made a good decision just now. I just bought some Premier TS A632P speaks. Got ''em for 50 bucks on amazon.
I''ve been tuning my amp the past couple days, and I ABSOLUTELY notice how much better it sounds in the back seat with aftermarket speakers. I can''t wait to get the same sound up front.

Sorry for the short response I just had severe shoulder reconstruction surgery. The stock 7 gen HU puts out about 15w RMS.

Pioneers providing good bass, huh? What model are they (I''m guessing they are 6x9 since they''re int he back) and about how much did they cost you?
