Stereo & 3rd Party Head units

The standard sound quality isnt that great on my fiat grande punto. Does anyone know if putting my old kenwood stereo improve the quality? Or will the speakers need upgrading aswell?

Might improve them a bit but best bet is to upgrade them and amp them up.

the kenwood is likely to have more output and a better EQ so it will sound a bit better but speakers will make all the difference

Re: Stereo & 3rd Party Head units

So the main opinion is stick with main head unit and get some different speakers?

With installing new speakers, will they rip much of the interior out to get the speaker slot?

You are best replacing Headunit and then speakers. To get to the door speakers the whole door card needs to come off IIRC
