upgrading everything...

Well I got my Kenwood Head Unit and waiting for my Screen to come in (the one from ebay) and want to replace my stock speakers.

What do you guys recomend? Speakers? Amp?

What sizes are the doors?

Money is not an option but I want to know whats sounds the best all around because I really don't want a sub..

Thanks for all Ideas

PS After I hooked up my head umit the sub under the seat didn't work. Does anyone know what is wrong?

factory amp

The sub under the seat wont work with the new head unit cause there is no way to tie it in to a aftermarket system so its gone for now

speaker sizes are 5 1/4 in the rear doors and 6 1/2's in the front.

if money isn't a factor, why not go with focal? they sound awesome! especially the utopia line. but be prepared to pay some $$$$.

The sub should still work. As long as you don't disturb the harness and just plug it as-is into the harness adapter for the new HU, all the connections for the sub are still there. It gets power through the harness and input from the rear speaker connections. No turn-on connection is required.
I have an aftermarket HU (Alpine) with the stock sub and I didn't have to do anything to make it work, it just did.
