A few ideas as follows:

1 Give your system a bit of time to bed in before deciding on radical upgrades. I recently changed my speakers with the aid of the "how to " on this site. They sounded terrible at first with far too much treble. However they have improved with use and are now excellent.

2 If you still have the original speakers - it is well worth upgrading them. The Honda speaker upgrade is not as good as an aftermarket upgrade. A Guide on upgrading to aftermarket speakers - see link below:

3 Further improvements can be had by soundproofing the doors, changing rear speakers and adding a small sub. How to guides are on this site.
I went as far as changing all the speakers and soundproofing and am now very happy with the sound quality. See the How to section:
How To Dramatically improve speaker sound quality for £40 (Dynamat)
Rear Speakers - Replacement with Coaxials (3 Door)
Weak Bass now sorted! Also, pics of the back of the radio

4 The bass works isn't considered to be good value on this site, but if you upgrade the speakers you should have a reasonable system.

All the above upgrades in the how to guides:
- give a dramatic improvement over standard,
- are low cost,
- are fairly easy to do yourself,
- keep the car looking standard.

If you are very serious about your ICE set up and want to spend more there are lots of other guides on the site.
