My mom wants to buy a car audio system for her new car, I wanted some pointers on what kind of system to buy. She listens mainly to pop/instrumental/vocal music (basically, music soft on the ears ;p), at low to moderate volumes. We have zeroed in on a basic Pioneer head unit (DEH 2290 UB), as it has all the features that she and I need (aux in, USB and mp3 CD support). We wont be fixing an amp either. I was wondering what kind of speakers to go in for. I could go in for the basic Pioneer speakers (2 front round two-way speakers and 2 back oval three-way coax). But the guy at the audio shop recommended Hertz speakers, saying they sound much better. They sure might, but I'm wondering if it would really make a difference to sound quality, considering that mom listens at lower volumes generally. He even suggested to go in for front "component" Hertz speakers, which he says sound even better. My question is whether at lower volumes, these higher-priced speakers would really sound better, compared to the basic Pioneer speakers. If they do, for our kind of usage, would Hertz coax or component speakers be a better choice?
He also suggested that he'll mount the rear speakers on a wooden board that sits above the boot (we have a Hyundai i10). The car already has a plastic board covered with felt over the boot. Can't the rear speakers be mounted on it? (in our earlier car, it was done like that).
Thanks
