Upgrade to Boston Acoustics amp/speakers
Has anyone upgraded their base speakers (2006+ models) to the BA system? What all is involved and are you pleased with the results?

Re: Upgrade to Boston Acoustics amp/speakers
I decided to just add dash speakers. I picked up some Audiobahn 3.5" and I already had some 6.5" 4-ways that I put in the rear doors. They're not as loud as the stock speakers, but they're cleaner sounding. I had also already order the Mopar subwoofer and installed that last night, too. I'm going to add a set of 5x8's in the rear, while I've got the rear panels off.
I had replaced the factory REF headunit with an RAQ 6 disc changer. I'm not quite done, but already it sounds much, much better. I'm also putting in the bluetooth kit and the EVS1 alarm, while I've got the dash apart.
