Stereo System Upgrade On a Budget?

[Twidget]

My '05 hatchback came with the AM/FM/ radio only as I used to use XM satellite radio.When they merged with Sirrius prices doubled. Bye-bye XM. I do have a 4G smartphone with unlimited data, so I listen to internet radio and apps. (Pandora, iHeart, ESPN...) Got the mechless receiver as I have all my CD's converted to MP3. I now have a fantastic sounding audio system that links to my smartphone wirelessly. The sub is under the driver's seat but could be placed behind the back seat. This powered sub is a bit pricey but mades a world of difference in sound quality! Still using the stock speakers. Cell phone quality is outstanding through the stereo.

I have all my CD's converted to MP3.

With a program like itunes, you can rip any cd into mp3 format very quickly, and easily. With my stock six cd changer/mp3 player in the Aveo, I don't really notice the loss in audio quality the way I do when playing mp3's on my home stereo. The stock speakers aren't really be good enough to make the compression noticeable to the point of being irritating. So, I too have loaded the deck with several hundred mp3's for the time being.

I am however going to replace the stereo soon. A 900 W RMS ALPINE 5 channel PDX will be powering the system. I'll put 110W RMS Alpine SPR's in each door and 100 W RMS 6x9's in the rear. Also a 200 W RMS 10" pioneer sub in the rear. Not sure about the front tweeters in the a pillars yet. I'll need that high end though. A basic touchscreen CD/DVD deck will be mounted in the dash. I think this will be a good system to drop in the hatchback.
