audi bose replacement

[Sounder99@aol.com]

I have tried to search the archives to look at previos discussions regarding
replacement of the audi bose stereo, but have successfull.  I would like to
put a cd player head unit in my car while still taking advantage of the stock
amped speakers.  I know this has been discussed before, but the guy at the
stereo store says I will need about a $900 amp and deck to recreate the sound
I get with the stock system.  All speakers would also have to be rewired to
bypass the existiing amped system.
