Speaker upgrade Recommendations?

Hi. As you may know or heard about the Harman Kardon Speakers blowing out. Currently on my 2014 E350, I have the front passenger on its way out, the right rear gone, and the subwoofer gone, and most likely the subwoofer amplifier.

at this point. Is it worth doing an entire speaker over haul? I don’t want to break the bank, and just want decent audio. Thoughts? I’m not looking to add an amp in the trunk or make any noticeable aftermarket modifications.

Any advice talking to them?

I’ve spent countless hours fighting them about it. With no result.

Sorry not, doing fix on my own most of the times but have like 5 hours drive to nearest mb dealar not have time to try goodwill and my car are old 2012.
But heard some people here on forum got it fixed for free, but sure it may depend how good contact you got with your dealer and things like that.

Did buy aftermarket speakers 40$ for 2p for the doors and they feel 100 times better then original. But its seems you have to buy everything new?
