Change speakers and keep the Bose radio???

[vkyolv]

Ok so normally I change out all of my speakers in my cars because I typically have a system instead of staying stock. However, I plan on keeping the stock radio, my question is would it be worth it to change all of the speakers or just leave well enough alone?

If I change, what brand would be a good pairing for the stock radio?

I'm not positive on this, but I don't think you can change out the Bose speakers without changing the Bose headunit. Reason being the ohms that the Bose headunit is weird, like 1.5ohms or something so most speakers wouldn't work with that.

At least that's what I remember people saying anyways...

Why were you thinking of keeping the bose headunit? You would be much better off replacing the head unit as well unless you don't have the money right now, which I understand. You would want to get the best speakers possible, pairing specific ones with the unit isnt gonna do anything for you because the bose HU isnt putting out much better sound than the stock unit. You're best bet is to get a sound processor. I guessing that you want to keep the factory look and you like how the HU blends into the interior, so a processor like the jl audio cleansweep or the rf threesixty.1 will take the signal coming from your HU and turn it into high quality sound, as good as an expensive HU.

You guessed correctly on all fronts...hell i don't even have the money for speaker replacement. One main reason for keeping the stock HU would be for the Steering wheel controls and the bluetooth handsfree...
