Just finished up installing my new MB Quart QSD 213 speakers in the front doors and QSD 216's in the rear, of my 2003 Mini Cooper S, I had to make a special bracket to hold the 6-1/2's and 1" tweeters in the rear which was originally ment for 6x9's, they sound absolutely amazing on the stock Harmon Kardon headunit, but I will upgrade the headunit sometime in the near future, pictures to come soon.
Any suggestions for the headunit upgrade? I'm leaning towards a Pioneer Premier or Clarion.

Not sure if I want to add a subwoofer, the speakers sound very tight without one.
I just want more power to them. Not exactly sure the total output of the stock headunit, i think its 25w RMS x 4, a new headunit with preamp outs and a nice 50w to 75w RMS x 4 AMP would be a very much improvement.
