Hi there

I just bought a 2002 Honda Odyssey.

After reading all your posts & stories carefuly,
measuring the paper-speakers in the car, now
I'm ready.

I want the new SONY CDX-GT610Ui

http://akamaipix.crutchfield.com/products/2006/158/h158GT610Ui-f_mt_I.jpeg

with four PIONEER TS-A1672R speakers\
(35 watt nominal, mounting depth 1-3/4")

Now there are also Premium Speakers
available from PIONEER called TS-A642P.
(50 watt nominal, mounting depth 1-5/8")

Here are my Questions:

:confused: 1. Is it worth "updating" to the premium speakers?
(more power at almost the same mounting depth)

:confused: 2. Are Sony Radio & Premium Speakers available here?

Thanks for your answer(s)/comments/toughts/ideas...
