A simple and cheap fix is to install the capacitors as this thread mentions. I have replaced my head unit with a Pioneer ($150) and really love it. I also ended up replacing the door speakers with Infinity Reference for ~ $50.
All of these things make a big difference. Start small. Stop when you are happy!
If you need capacitors, I will send a pair to you for $6 ready for install.
Does anyone have a pair of 330uf non-polarized capacitors that they could sell me?
