well I'm sorta kinda a newbie when it comes to stereo equipment, speakers, etc. what not, I know my basic IPOD hookups and AUX Pie Adapter receivers for satellite radios and what not. but I'm a newbie when it comes to the other accessories to a stereo system. for the only thing that I know when it comes to a system is my 05 mustang is equipped with the "shaker 1000" stereo system, 9 speakers with 2 woofers in the truck, direct from ford. go figure.....

well for my 2007 focus I just have the basic basic system with the 1 disc CD changer with aux input. I'm trying to get a more better crisp sound quality from my radio but also put a nice beat of bass to the music as well. when I mean bass, I'm not talking about ricer imports who put mega 12" subwoofers in the trunk that makes the car rattle till something off the car falls off or I can hear the subwoofers like 14 blocks down the road. I'm not looking for that. I'm looking for more in the midrange, something that hit with a nice tolerable bass, but wont make it annoying. plus I'm looking to not have to put a woofer box in the trunk.

can anyone point me in the direction as to what I can benefit from, (kinds of speakers, brand names, etc.) that will give me what I'm looking for? Crutchfield gives me a good list of speakers based upon what will fit my car. but like I said, I'm no stereo expert, so I need some help
