what to add to stock stereo system
I would like to add something to the stock radio system, I found the aux plug with the green/orange wires under the pass side panel. What can you easily hook up to it other than a factory changer?
Satellite radio?
ipod?
Thanks

if you want just a BOOST in the sound, you could add a subwoofer and amp without changing out the stock radio.
I added a Bazooka 10" subwoofer and amp, mounted in the center rear compartment. $200 later and the stereo sounds great

If you added just an amp to that 'aux' connection, would it boost sound to just the front, rear, or all speakers? (Hopefully not too dumb a question... )

Anybody know how to get the BASS to work?? I bought my Z new in 02 and the sound system is so bad we drive without the radio on rather than the all treble scratch.

I put JUST an amp in my 72 coupe and it bumped it up a bit, but it didn't have the DEPTH that the subwoofer and amp combo does in my Z06

To add bass, u can add an amp and a stealth box (JL Audio). You need to run it off one of the front speakers, though. The rear speakers are limited in the frequencies they produce. This fits in the rear center compartment and comes with a cover. I wouldn't change the speakers unless u change the head unit and add an amp.
