Hello all, I'm going to replace the head unit in my 2005 SL55 AMG with a Kenwood DNN770HD or (more likely) a DDX990HD head unit.

I would like to retain the stock speakers for now.

Thanks to the navtv . com interface module swapping the head unit in my car is now easier than ever.

I have been wondering lately - how is the stock amp? If I'm swapping the head unit maybe it's also worth swapping the amp for a better unit? Is it worth going this route if I keep the stock speakers or, will the speakers be the limiting factor in performance?

The MOST Interface Module is about $600. I figure if I swap both head unit and amp this would negate the need for the interface module and I could put the $600 towards a good amp.

Any opinions either way?

Thanks,

Brian

I am planning to take this on over the winter, for the cost of add on modules for usb connectivity, sat radio, and a back up camera, I think I should be able to gut the system and start over. I have a left over kendwood double din, a four channel amp, and I already installed a new sub amp a few years back. I followed a ton of what amgfan did in his build, if you search it, there is an awesome writ up for it. Let me know how things go!
