Good system?

[CB7lx91]

Hey guys, I know next to nothing about audio stuff, but when I bought my car, it came with a Pioneer Head Unit, and XPlod Speakers.

I guess I'm just wondering if that's a good system. btw I play punk, rock, hardcore, metal...stuff like that, not too much rap or hip hop - if that makes any difference./ thanks guys

do you want a system that will sound good and not draw attention to you ?? or do u want to set off car alarms and let everyone know your driving by ??

something that'll sound good and not bring any attention to me haha

when you said speakers in your OP, do you mean subs or other speakers, like 6x9s and door speakers and stuff?

if they're door or rear deck speakers, you're fine with them. you could get an amp to get a bit more power out of them, but if they seem fine to you then just save some money and leave them.

if they're subs, an amp is once again a choice, but if they sound alright and since you said you don't want to draw attention, just leave 'em.

one other thing is, how old is the deck? if it's fairly new then just leave it. but if it's a bit old (like a couple years) then you could get a new one. they seem to be coming down in price for the basic ones and they're starting to come with more features. just a thought though.

I really like Pioneer's basic H/Us.....they are well powered and reliable. For a $180 or less H/U (retail) they would be my top pick. For more expensive units I tend towards Alpine.....(Panasonics are reasonably priced with many options too)

I HATE Sony's XPlod line.......the decks are underpowered and junky and the speakers are lousy compared to many other brands. They're better than stock, but thats not saying much.

Alpine Type S are very reasonably priced fairly powerful speakers and I like Clarion too.

If you have an EX with 6x9's in the back then I would say you're set with some nice 3way Alpines front and rear. Good setup for listening to punk or rock.....

A nice little 10" KickerCompVR in a sealed box in the trunk would add a little more oomph, but that starts ratcheting up the $

good luck

the comp CVR subs are worth it. They wont kill your budget and will sound good in a sealed box.

[wrichards2005]

You can make anything sound good in the right box. I would personally go with something like RF, JL, Kicker, or Alpine.

Brands I'd stay away from are: Pioneer (for subs anyways), Sony, MTX (which is my current setup, and they sound DIRTY), Audiobahn, Dual, Lanzar, Kenwood, and pretty much anything else best buy sells, lol.
