I agree with kevmurray.
The problem with upgrading only the speakers is you are not getting anymore power. In both cases upgrading only the deck or only the speakers will often have negligible benefits.
If you get new speakers, you need to AMP EM!

I hope that once I got the Eclipse AVN6620 installed, I should have enough juice to drive the speakers. I don't listen to it that loud.
When I installed my actual Kenwood HU in my Caravan, I must admit that I was pleasantly surprised to realise that the stock speakers sounded pretty decent and the power, other than the odd time I was playing silly, had enough power. Didn't need to amplify them.
I'll keep you informed.

Even a simple after market 25wrms x 2 amp will sound better than a HU (but I don't know if any company makes an amp that small - except for severely underrated amps that might like to rate their amps like this: 25x2 @ 8 ohms with 10 volts . . . )
