I just swapped my blown stock 6.5"s out for some sony explod 3 ways, There is a bit of a difference in clarity but nothing really noticeable other then that.

The stock head unit won't push enough power to the speakers to make a real noticable difference. An aftermarket HU will push a little more than stock, but amping the speakers would really make them sound good, as mentioned above.

Personally, I enjoy my music too much to ever go back to stock :D
