Hey,

Apologies if this has been covered before, but I couldn't find anything. I drive a '14 Ford Fiesta Trend, I love my car and have no problem with the sound system, but I just find that it isn't loud enough and sometimes the bass cuts-off far too much when you crank it up the bass sometimes disappears completely. I believe the standard specs are roughly 80 watts, which is alright, much better than that of my Vivo past, but I still feel it could be better.

Now I don't really want to see the audio system, I don't like anything looking anything other than standard,

So I'm thinking of installing this:

What do you think? Worth it?
 
i personally think what you should visit your local car audio specialist, that can assist with a nice neat custom install. that will look OEM and work with your current Factory setup.

also, there are better speakers than kicker out there, budget dependent obviously. Like i said visit a well known car audio installer in your area and he will be best to advise you.

That website is way overpriced. Check Takealot.

I recently purchased the CS65 coaxials (from Takealot) to replace the stock front speakers in my car and it made a huge difference. They aren't very good with producing low notes though but overall I'm happy with them and it was money well spent.

I think the KICKER CSS654 Components and the CX400.4 amp with a decent sub will do fine if you aren't looking at rattling windows and all that :erm:

You don't really need speakers at the back.
