Default New to audio

Well I'm in the process of restoring my car and want to look into fixing up my audio a little bit. I'm more about the performance part of these cars but I think that a new CD player with an mp3 connection along with replacing some speakers will make update the car a little. I just want to have something that sounds nice. I don't like rolling around with the volume turned all the way up but I listen to rap music so with the bass low and 3 blown speakers, it sounds like garbage. I'm looking to replace the 4 interior speakers and CD player so any advice with brands and what to look for would be appreciated along with any other little things I should look into doing.

I would look at Kee Audio. He has a factory speaker replacement package that's suppose to be real good.

I have talked to him several times, haven't bought anything yet, but he has answered every question I have ever had. Sometimes it takes him a few days to get back with people. He has a full time job and does this on the side.
