So in looking for speakers to replace those in the H1, I don't even know where to begin. Here's what my uneducated thoughts are:

1. Look for speakers with high watt capability. The ones in there are 45W, so I should probably find something similar.

2. Boston Acoustics, Inifinity, Alpine, Pinoneer--All good names.

3. If I get a suffciently nice headunit, I won't need to buy any amps (and save myself a couple bucks).


Any corrections for advice? I've been looking at Memphis Audio as well, but not really sure about them.

Thanks.

I think that cricket guy gave you all you needed, one more piece of advice - spend more on speakers and less on a head unit. A top-line head unit w/crappy speakers will sound worse than a crappy head unit w/top-line speakers. If you have a limited budget, always always go with nicer speakers!

Infinitiy are great, I like Kenwood and Pioneer units (not a big fan of Sony, Clarion, JVC, etc). Alpine is nice, with those nice blue buttons.
