what kind of car audio system should i get?

[Sher-Royce]

I have a 2002 Mazda Tribute and the CD player is jammed. I never bought a audio system before so i have no idea on what i need. If i purchase a new radio, do i need to get speakers too? Or what about sub-woofers? And where is a good place to get one and get it installed.

Get an Alpine cd player. You don't need new speaker to get a new head unit. If you want subs, I would get JLs.

I recommend buying a new radio and maybe replacing those factory speakers. That will greatly improve your sound. Try going to crutchfield.com because they can tell you what will fit in your car.

I replaced my stock radio with a pioneer headunit and bought rockford fosgate speakers. it sound a whole lot better. Subs really arent neccessary. most aftermarket speakers will put out sufficient bass.
