What's the recommendation for replacing the FD BOSE in 2021?

Pull everything, rewire and use a small sub for bass. I pulled my spare, cut a wood disc and mounted my amps to it and fastened it in the spare compartment. With the carpet you can't tell they are there. 1 4x for the speakers, 1 mono for a 10in sub. For interior speakers, I'd say that is a personal choice depending on what you listen to. Honestly, with the engine and exhaust, the niceties of high end speakers can't be heard anyways, so don't go too fancy unless you use a bunch of dynamat to quiet the noise.

Not unless you believe in the @djseven 's school of quiet/docile FD.
I've build my FD to be quiet at idle/cruise and light throttle ... only gets somewhat louder at WOT; gets around 350rwhp.

By comparison, my FD is quieter than my Audi S4 with an AWE Exhaust.

Thanks for the inputs thou.

Well of course, but I though it would be mutually understood that if the car is relatively quiet then the comment doesn't apply
