Should I go with Amplifier or DSP/amp

[bradlyo]

I have a 23 non HK telluride I believe this version is without an amp? So was wondering if I need a good amp along with speaker replacement, or do I need to go the DSP/amp combo route? I'm putting in Focal speakers so want to get the most out of them. Last time I had a system installed DSP didn't exist so I'm out of the loop. I'd need it installed and local shop quoted $800 for DSP Install.

Cambridge Audio is a great place to make inquiries about car sound systems that fit particular makes and models.

An ounce of data trumps a pound of theory. Change out your speakers and listen for a few weeks to see whether you think other boxes are also necessary.
