Thanks for the input so far guys.
Craig - I see your point but I can't afford to go down the speaker / HU all in one package at the moment and after testing one of my favourite CDs in MrV's car with a stock HU and improved speakers I could certainly hear the difference.
I will ultimately upgrade the HU but that will probably be after Christmas, I just want a bit more clarity from what I have and it seems to be a better improvement for

Hellfords are recommending these : Pioneer TSE-1775 Speakers but for the size which I believe shoiuld be 6.5" or 17cm, I can get either:
2004 Alpine SXE-1750S 17cm Speaker which is a 2-way component speaker for

Yes, but they cost twice as much and so out of Kelk's current budget. At least if he buys a two channel amp now, he can buy a second two channel amp if he decides to run rears at a later date. I would not bother though, from my own epxerience of running rear speakers and now amped fronts.
Brain not engaged there and forgot about the budget.
I have a 2 channel amp kelk could buy cheap but the problem is, it's going to cost him nearly all of his budget to buy a wiring kit as I left that in my old car

Cheers guys, as you can probably tell I know about as much about stereos (car or home) as a frog knows about downhill olympic skiing.
Craig, Nick and Super cheers so far, especially for the beginners guide and my, what must seem like, base level knowledge questions. one thing I have found for myself is
Low cost car audio who seem to be under-cutting everyone else's prices.
I shall have a mooch around given what you have toled me and keep this one moving.....
any other recommendations are most appreciated and if the budget needs to increase slightly then I amy well justify that.
