Good afternoon my friends
I am looking to upgrade the sound system in my car. My budget is around 1000$.
I have the super base model, no additional extras (I knew I was going to modify everything in the car so I didn't want to pay extra for anything). I want to improve the sound quality while retaining the same steering wheel functions.
Speaker Info
Base Model (6 Speaker Configuration)
6.5" (Doors)
Tweeters (A Pillars)
6.5" (Rear Deck)
I plan on upgrading the door speaker, deck speaker, pillar tweeters and adding a subwoofer. I have a few questions regarding upgrading the audio system
1. I assume I have to add an amplifier but will I need to replace the radio as well? I don't really use the radio at all in my car and just connect my phone with Bluetooth. Do I need to upgrade the radio to power my new setup?
2. I plan on replacing the tweeters, door and rear deck speakers. Any recommendations for which speakers for the budget I am going for. If I have to go a little bit over budget I don't mind (I am a musician and audio quality is something very important to me)
3. Is the tweeter worth upgrading because I see a lot of people ignore the tweeters when upgrading their sound system.
4. Since I plan on adding a subwoofer, I will have a 7 speaker configuration. Does that mean I will need a 7 channel amp?
5. Does anybody have any experience with sound deadening? I want to add sound deadening to the floor and trunk to keep the outside noises out and the inside noises in. I would appreciate any information regarding what you recommend etc. etc.
Thank you for reading and I appreciate any information you provide
Have a good day
