Rule of thumb...........
Salesmen LIE.
Always. That's what they are paid to do. Even when you think they are telling the truth..... they are not. Just very good at the job.

They will sell you the CD player and the new speakers and the new amp to drive the new speakers and if cc sold trucks he would try and sell you a new vehicle to put all the new audio equipment in.

Yeah good points guys. I know nothing about this stuff so i had no clue if the salesman was right or not. I can see his point, but i think i'll just get the cd player put in and only get the speakers if it sounds like crap afterwards. No use dishing out an extra $200 bucks if i dont need too.

Thanks for the input

I'll second this. I don't think I've ever heard a car stereo get worse from an aftermarket head unit.

As a rule, watts doesn't break speakers. Distortion does.

I'd install (or have them) the radio first. I doubt you'll notice the sound quality got worse, it may even be better.
