Good HU? - Toyota Nation Forum : Toyota Car and Truck Forums

Hello! I've got a 99' 4Runner and just replaced the stock speakers with 6-1/2 Pioneer TS-G671M in the front doors, and 5-1/4 TS-G1341R in the rear doors. They don't seem much clearer or louder than the stocks unfortunately. Would installing a new HU help with the sound quality? Any recommends? I do like the Pioneer DEH-P4800MP. I'm looking to spend around $150.
Thanks!

i have the DEH-4600MP and it's great...the EQ isn't the best but it's fine with me

Do you think it would have enough power to push the front and rear door speakers? Or do I need a an amp?

yeah it's got enough power...but if you want clear and good sound you should get some components

Is the sound and clarity of even cheaper components that much of an improvement? I don't know much about car audio. The speakers I just got seem to have a light distorted crackle sound when listening to music. Its not really noticable though unless I have my ear up against the speaker. I made sure the pos & neg wires are hooked up right. I really hope its the fact I'm still using the stock deck.
