I beg to differ. I have a 2003 Accord and I put a new headunit (JVC
SH707 200 watts, PPI 240 watt AMP and 2 10" JL Audio Subs in the
trunk)
It rocks!
Original speakers in the front, doors, and back. I can only turn the
deck up to 1/2 volume before it gets too loud for my ears. I love loud
music.
Distortion free I might add. It is always better to overpower speakers
then underpower.
