But every stock system sucks: if they've got a good head-unit then they put low-quality speakers; if they've got good head-unit and speakers then they've got bad amps; if they've got even good head-unit and speakers and amplifiers then they saved on acoustic enclosure (e.g. I've not aware of any stock system that utilize either closed box or vented box for mid-bass or midrange). I bet all my funds that when they learn to go with good head-unit and speakers and amps and (what a surprise!) hire a good acoustic engineer and put each driver into an appropriate acoustic enclosure - they'll save on wires.

Actually, it's not only the components that give you a real system. It's also the design. Whatever components you pick up (even the best of the best ones) they'll screw it up if you just throw them into a car - they have to be properly put into proper locations and properly adjusted and tuned in order to give you a good sound stage and response. I've only seen about 10% of really good car stereo systems that kept using stock location for any speaker - and nevertheless 99% of those 10% had to re-adjust speaker position in that location.
