Have an Infiniti with one of those run-of-the-mill Bose systems with cardboard speakers and a horrible sub. Kept the stock head unit, speakers upgraded where easily accessible (to match the amp had to find 2ohm high sensitivity speakers). Replaced spare-tire sub with better spare-tire sub. Dynamatted all the doors and floors. Maybe $1,000 and some of my time for the work? Marked improvement, but as others have said, hardly a controlled listening environment.
