Suggestions for new complete audio setup in 02 T/A Virtually all my stock speakers have finally blown.. and the monsoon HU is starting to really skip and scratch cds, as well as the screen doesn't show all the characters anymore.
Looking to replace the HU, and all the speakers (not really looking to add a sub or anything like that), I'm thinking on keeping the stock monsoon amp thats in the rear quarter panel... unless that would need to be swapped out with the particular system.
My question is, what would a decent system be to replace the HU and speakers that will be as close to plug and go as possible? I'm not looking to spend a lot, but I am also not looking for super high quality, near stock quality is fine for now.
Budget would be probably in the $300-$500 range for everything on the high end.
But also want the steering wheel controls to function with the new system
Any ideas?
Thanks.

Definitely talk to Ian @ Kee Audio. Great guy, sure knows his stuff.
The Kenwood KDC-HD548U is a nice headunit. I recently picked it up for a temporary replacement until I can gather the funds for my double din setup.
For speakers, he has quite a few different setups, depending on how much you want to spend... Ranging from 250ish to 550 or so.
Send him a PM or an e-mail, you won't regret it!

I can work with you on that budget and get you a big improvement with the install gear included for the head unit. shoot me an email at:
keeaudio@bellsouth.net
This is the best way to reach me right now as I am constantly away from the computer and have been working more and more lately at my other job but can get to emails on my phone pretty quick.
