Step 1

Step 2
Choose the receiver that you want for your sound system. Choices include the CD1200, CD3200 and CD7200. Some features of these USB-enabled receivers are iPod compatibility, built-in Bluetooth, removable faceplates and an illuminated front panel.

Step 3
Select your Eclipse car amplifier. The amplifiers range from single channels to as many as five channels. They work with the subwoofer of your system in order to provide the best sound possible.

Step 4
Upgrade with a set of aftermarket speakers from Eclipse. You'll need to know the current size of your OEM speakers in order to figure out what size to order. Some examples of Eclipse speaker sizes are 4 inch, 5 ¼ inch and 6 inch.

Step 5
Decide if you want to add subwoofers to your car system. Subwoofers are a type of audio product that allow for extra bass to play through your vehicle's sound system. Eclipse manufactures both 10-inch and 12-inch subwoofers. The 12-inch version is standard, while the 10-inch type is used when a limited amount of space is available.
