    I would like to replace the CD/cassette radio in my 2003 PT with something
    sounding better. Not a killer system, but maybe something with an equalizer a
    tad better than merely bass/trebel, etc. Upgraded speakers?
    Any information and suggestions welcomed, including good places to buy this.
    Thanks

    Since the OEM system is a bit bass heavy (I have to keep the slider all the
    way down), I recommend an name brand radio that has a multi band eq setup to
    let you achieve flat frequency response. Then consider the Chrysler powered
    woofer. It has received good reviews on PT web sites from real users. The
    OEM speakers are not bad and I would not put my money into new speakers.

    Are you looking to keep the CD/tape deck or are you okay with just a CD
    player? How much do you want to spend? Do you want to play MP's? How about a
    remote control? (don't laugh remotes are just as useful in a car as they are
    for your TV)

    I think Pioneer CD players are about the best on the market at this time,
    they look nice and are very easy to operate. I even put one in my moms car
    and she can hardly turn on the computer. You can find much better deals on
    decks online than at best buy/circuit city/ect... However you will have to
    put it in yourself and you will probably only have the Mfg. warranty if
    something breaks.

    Just upgrading the deck will make your stock speakers sound much better so I
    would wait to upgrade the speakers until after you install the new deck. You
    probably will be fine with the stock speakers, not to mention they are the
    hardest and most expensive part of upgrading a sound system.
