well first up, search - these questions have been asked 463 times before.

YES you can change speakers, but not worth it really, why? search.

YES you can change the tweeters, how? search

£300 for sub and amp? SQ/SPL?

right....

gota sort this out....

just cause you go one way or the other (sq or SPL) it doesnt mean you dont have ANY of the other. For example, my RE SX12 sub was SPL, yet it still had great quality because of the box...

by the sounds of things, you want loud bass...

for £240:

Yeah, its a ported box. That hole is the port, where the air/sound comes out of

Well move more to the front if the rears cant handle it... Personal preferenace really buddy

You may aswell leave the tweeters tbh mate. Lots of hassle envolved in changing them, and not really worth it if you only going to put halford specials in tbh.

I'd fit it myself if i was you. follow the ice sticky on here, and post in here if you get stuck.
