just buying a new headunit wont totally improve your sound, you need to replace the factory speakers with a good set of components as well

id say buy an amp and some decent speakers.
If money is a factor get some Infinity,they sound good and rock for budget stuff

if money doenst matter get the Focal

This is what I got in my car at the moment > http://cartoys.com/Default.cfm/p/DEHP590IB_Receiver/
The guys there told me that the deck helps a lil bit so should i stick with the Pioneer Premiere and get some decent speakers? My friend has a 2000Honda Accord and his stock audio is way louder than mine. So what are the main factors involved loud,crispy sound amp,deck,speakers,sub? im sorry guys im very noobish at this just need some decent sound -_-

We have really good speakers I dont know why you would have the problem but get some higher end ones and a small amp I guess and you will have some good sound

my fave pioneer deck of the new series is the 9800bt. however to fit your budget, id say the 7900 or the 6900, thats just my opinion. the one you have is pretty good tothe stock speakers dont sound too bad for being stock, however adding a sub helps a bit too, and if you do the instal yourself, you learn about your car and you save a few bucks. :)
