Forget the pioneer speakers.
Go with this component set and no rear speakers!!
JL AUDIO XR650 ~$300
If you're willing to spend more, Focal Polykevlar 165k2, $500 or somewhre in that neighborhood from thezeb.com
And go with a Us Acoustics 150x2 amp from http://www.thezeb.com
Go with a JL10w3 or IDQ10 subwoofer, powered by a Us Acoustics amp, when you want "good sounding bass"
The head unit is great, I had one for a while until I swapped it out for a Clarion HX-D10.
if you have any questions, feel free to email me at

I don't think you will be happy with the low end unless you add a small sub at the least.
GO WITH THE JL AUDIO STEALTH BOX AND A JL 5CH AMP :D

Re: Pioneer Sound System - Comments (MAGRED 02)
Pioneer only makes quality decks. Skip the amp and speakers. Also, I wouldn't have gotten the 1.5 din deck. It costs more for the same features, is harder to sell or take with you to the next car as most cars are single or double din, and they look Fisher Price with big goofy looking LCD readouts and buttons. I'd get a pioneer 4400 and use the cash to upgrade to a good amp, sub, and pair of seperates for the front. :yesnod:
What you have is about $550 worth of stuff including two sets of discontinued speakers. If you paid more than this for the equipment, walk. The install should be about $250. Hope this helps.
