hey im new to this forum stuff so yer,

i've just replaced my stock speakers in my vy wagon with PIONEER TS-A1682s (each are 280 watts max) all round, and the differnence isn't noticable at all from original, but what i wanto know is that should i get a PIONEER head unit (DEH-P4050UB i was looking at) to get the best fom the speakers,

OR, should i go for a PIONEER amp (GM-6300F)???

im leaning towards the head unit so far but dunno what to get at this time,

but i will be getting subs later on down the track so i'll be needing the amp then anyways.

cheers,

Get the head unit first. That will improve the sound quality, then if you want later, add an amplifier

yeah thats what i would do head unit wont really make a difference with the amp cause the amps doin all the work lol but unless u have the outputs for the stock headunit u need a new one. i would buy a new one anyway cause its always good to have MP3 discs btw thats 200watt over 4 speakers so its only 50 wat per speaker still lots better than the stock unit lol. but in any case lol deck and amp will be heaps better :) make sure u get the right amp though
