Default Stereo Upgrade

I have a 6 speed 01 Vert. Great car in every way.
However, I'd like to upgrade the stereo and speakers. I'd appreciate any advise on brands, costs and potential install issues. Finally, any recommendations regarding professional installers in the North Dallas/Texas area would be equally appreciated.

I AGREE!! You beat me to it.

Best asked in the Audio /Electronics section. Several stereo experts there!

Default Solved

I decided to keep the original stereo and speakers. To access streaming music via Pandora and other services, I purchased a Bluetooth transmitter. This low cost devise works GREAT!!!
