Question for People with 03/04 Impreza's
I just got a 04 Impreza WRX...and the stereo is crap...worse than my truck...I am wondering what is the best recipe for success based on your guys experience...Is it better to just replace the head unit?...or just replace the speakers?...or replace everything?...what has worked best for you guys?....

Start out with replacing the head unit, something like a good Alpine, Pioneer, or Kenwood works good. If you have the subaru "upgrade" 6-1/2" front components, those are pretty decent speakers, but they need a good crossover instead of the factory cap on the tweeter. it is worthwhile to invest in a good set of component front speakers though, just make sure they are sized properly and don't hit the door panel at hard bass. The rear speakers are just sound filler, and the stock ones work fine.
My system is simply a Alpine 9813 head unit and Focal Polyglass components in the front doors. It sounds incredible compared to the stock system. I plan on investing in a good amp and some coaxial rear speakers in the near future though...
