Default FGX max volume poor

Hi there,
I have an FGX xr8 and the max volume is not even close to loud enough... do you have any suggestions?
Thanks

Somethings wrong their mate my old lady's sounds are pretty loud for factory. Try running an aftermarket setup . Their not the greatest speakers even my BF isn't really that loud and it has a premium sound system in it could be better though

So will a set of speakers make a good difference?

Replace the back door speakers with good quality high efficiency mid/bass units, install a crossover on the rear door speaker cables and direct the high frequency signal to a pair of high power gimble tweeters mounted in the C pillars. Then replace the sub amp with one from a 08/9 Fusion from the USA

If your gonna just replace speakers then just use the factory wiring the amp isn't to bad you can run a 12' off it and sounds better than the factory one but pioneer have a free flowing sub that works awesome. Im in the process of replacing everything with aftermarket just need to fit some new speakers and I'm done.
