This actually gives me a conclusion that the stock touchscreen HU doesnt have great sound power as compared to the other cars which have stock alpine etc [But I maybe VERY wrong]

I would actually like to just upgrade a bit without spending so much to be at least on par or slightly better than stock.
I normally use the car alone, sometimes with another passenger. So pretty much the backseat isn't used 95% of the time.

My question is :
1) Can I just replace my 2 speakers up front into something better? [cheapest]
- If yes, can my HU handle these speakers to give them better sound loudness and quality?
- How much normally would installation cost?
- Is there specific speakers that I can only use? (watts or? Since I think better speakers wont be handled by my HU too well and/or needs an ampi)
- and if anyone can recommend good shops near san juan city area

Thanks!
1) Yes
- Yes
- Should be free if no modifications are done.
- Yes go get the Infinity Reference Series REF 6502IX, it costs around 3k. This type of speaker is a high sensitivity, low wattage, 3ohm speaker. Very ideal to be driven by the limited power your Head Unit has. You can always add a external amplifier if you feel you still want to go louder after initially installing them.
