Was the performance as impressive with the OEM head unit? I'm not really interested in replacing it.

The bass production is much more pronounced. You will probably still use "7", but at least you can feel the subs.
And no, the OEM head unit just does not have the "ooomph" that my new one does.
Just save your $$ for a while. You can get a decent unit for $125 and be happy as he!!.
