#700, "upgrade questions after HU"


          

Hey guys.

I went ahead and ordered a Nakamichi CD-40Z headunit ($179 from uBid). Now I need to figure out what I need to go long with it.

I have a 96GS with the stock cassette deck. Looks like I have the standard door speakers and tweeters. I'm not sure what kind of speakers are in the rear, either the 6.5"'s or 6"x9"'s.

I will soon have the Nak head unit, which has the following specs:
- Subwoofer preamp output (RCA)
- 4ch/4V Preamplifier output (RCA)
- Max.power x 4 at 4 ohms 43W

I also have a 5.25" Blaupunkt VC54 speaker system in a box with the following specs:
- 2 5.25" woofers
- 2 1" dome tweeters
- 12dB / Oct crossover network
- 160W max, 60W RMS
- 65-23000 Hz freq response
- Sensitivity: 92dB (2.83V/1m) / 90dB (1W/1m)
- Theile small parameters: Fs = 76Hz, Qts = 0.65, Vas = 0.25cu ft
- 4 ohm system impedance
- mounting depth 2.3" (58mm)
- I don't have a lot of detail on these, but they seem to be a fairly premium line from about 1998, and are in unused condition.

My questions are:

- will the HU drive these speakers well?
- should I also upgrade the door speakers?
- if so, any recomendations on what would be good? (I don't need nor can afford top of the line gear, but want to have good quality components to go along with the HU. Basically, bang for the buck here).
- do I need an amp? I'm hoping no, but I really have no clue one way or the other.

As you can tell, I don't really know much about audio stuff. Thanks for any info.
