Replace the stock speakers-- 100% improvement agad! You'll need separates for the front and co-axial for the rear deck. Since its a Nissan, you'll need 6.5 inch round speakers (front and rear). I don't think you'll need to put a hole in the rear deck. May naka-abang na yan. Baka dun lang sa cover.

Blaupunkt, Boston Acoustics, Pioneer, & Alpine co-axials range from P2.5k to P3.5k while separates starts at around P4.5 to P7k. High-end speakers starts at P7k.

Make sure you get the best speakers you can afford for the front. Audio imaging is always best if its coming from the front of the car. The rear deck is for ambiance only. Best for front is separates (nakahiwalay yung tweeter sa woofer). Mount the woofer at the door and the tweeter a little bit higher. This provides separation of mids and highs while making the lows nondescript.

You can stop at this point. Pakiramdaman mo muna, the amps, subs etc. are optional. Remember, may break-in period ang speakers. They will reach their peak performance after about a week.

You can get a decent amplifier for P3.5k. V12 brand is ok, medyo malaki lang sya. Pwede wala muna amp kung happy ka na sa tunog ng speakers mo.

Then add some bass, subwoofers starts at P3.5k, boxed and ported na sya.

If you opt not to have an amplifier, you can get powered subwoofers that starts at P3k. There's also low profile subs that can fit under the seat, I saw an NBN brand model that sells for P3.5k. Ok naman ang tunog.

You can leave the HU alone, unless may feature ka na hanap e.g. iPod control, aux plug. HU starts at P5k, decent na yun makukuha mo, mid-range Pioneer or low end Alpine.

Good luck.


BTW, ingat kung sa Banawe ka pupunta. Deal with shops ... wag ka manghinayang sa konting deperensiya sa presyo. Just my 2 cents worth.
