I am going to upgrade my sound system & speakers from stock, and I wanted to now if anyone has recommendations? I have a budget of about $200, and I am going for quality over volume output I think.

Also is the install hard? Should I buy the components from eBay or go to a audio shop?

Thanks!

Keep in mind the amperage requirements, you might need a higher output alternernator. :2cents:

Be patient, it Christmas time so you might be able to find some really good deals, especially on returns in the early part of January. Go to a store like Best Buy, Goodguys, etc. and try out various components. Don't expect to get big sub-woofers or amps for two hundred dollars, but you will be able to get a nice head and speakers.
