i am picking up a brand new ex-l v6 accord within the week. i have to take out my system in my truck and im curious what i should use with factory head unit and what i should sell? i dont want to replace the head unit because i love the clean look of the interior. but does it have an amp output? ive got an alpine amp that i would love to use to power the speakers. how good is the premium system speakers? im no audiophile, but i like quality stuff. is there somewhere that i can see the specs on the system. i cant find it on the honda site. thanks.
