Everyone,

So I'm tired of the stock speakers in my GT; when I got the car they sounded fine but after driving it daily and hearing them in action they aren't as clear or crisp as the Pioneers I put in my previous car. I've now decided to replace the stocks with the following:

Front: Pioneer TS-D720C
Rear: Pioneer TS-D702P

My question is since the system will, at most, output 540W of power can I use the stock amp. or should I go ahead and replace/bypass it with an aftermarket amp? The amp I'm looking at getting is the Alpine PDX-5.

PS: Overall, this is the first step towards building my carPC if that makes any difference.

Any help or experience would be greatly appreciated.

the stock amp will not handle it for very long-i've experienced it. Plus they do not do your aftermarket speakers justice anyways. I would go ahead and get the amp. Im not a fan of pioneer speakers for my opinion.

x2. I've had two pairs in the past, and the sound they produce just didn't seem that accurate.
