I'm guessing you need speakers, an amp which would handle future lid speakers, and everything else for the posted budget?

You'll be able to easily add an amp and decent speakers for well under $500 if you're not an audio snob for bass response and just want clean clear loud music. As said, some of the guys here are great at helping people to go in the right direction for a decent sound system upgrade if you don't mind doing some wiring. And there is also decent plug and play add-ones as well.

DD will fit in pods but I'm telling u bro with deep conviction, if u pull the pods out once they must never go back in!!! Save the bucks and get the BT Brackets and u will for sure thank me later.

As for amps, tons of good selections so narrow it down a bit and the gang here will help u sharpen the focus.
