I'm now looking to upgrade my ICE.  I don't need top quality sound, just better sound and clarity for decent sound.  Base on what I've read here, I'm thinking of doing the following:- - Retain existing HU & rear speakers- Add speakers (prob ard 13cm as well) to the front of the car @ either door or centre column of the footwell.- Upgrade tweeters @ stock location- Add a small subwoofer (not more than 10")- Add a basic amp With the above, I hope to get:- - Better all F/R sound balance - now mostly from the rear- Better clarity - with more speakers and better tweeters- Better all round sound - esp low end with subwoofer & amp Now the questions: - For front speakers, should I get coaxial speakers or components with crossovers?  How would it balance with the rear?- I've seen subwoofers with built in amps.  Are they ok for what I need?- Any value for money brands that I should look out for?  Budget for whole project not to exceed RM1k. Thanks in advance for any help rendered! Cheers!</p></blockquote><p></p>
