How to upgrade my audio system??
My Camaro is coming in in a few weeks and I ordered the upgraded Boston Acoustics speakers but now Im trying to figure out how to upgrade the the audio system, i heard the Boston Acoustics are very underwhelming.
I know for sure Im getting a SB-GM-CAM/12W6v3 sub and a HD900/5 amp both from JL but I have no clue how many Tweeters or woofers i should get to replace or upgrade the Boston Acoustics. |

6.5" component set for up front. 6x9's in the rear. There is a 3.5" center channel in the car, but most people disconnect/remove/do not reconnect it when upgrading.
If you like JL Audio, the ZR650-CSi or C5-650 sets would be nice in the front and the C2-690tx in the rear. I personally would forego rear speakers completely and put more power and money into the front component set.

If your gonna put another amp in it, your gonna need a sound processor. I had to put one in my Camry when I upgraded the stock system.

A sound processor isn't necessary in the Camaro w/ Boston system. If he was keeping the stock amp or didn't have the Boston system, he might need one at that point.
