es99300

Still in my first week of ownership and quickly I have found the audio quality to be vastly inferior to my former es300 stock system.
I am not an audiophile by any stretch, and am looking for a simple upgrade to be around the same quality of the es300 and not have a headache from straining to listen. My budget is around 150 - 250.
I read through some of the other threads, and while not understanding a lot of the technical jargon, thought it might make sense to do the following:

1) Buy a set of front door speakers - would these fit (open to alternatives, I'm pretty clueless)? 2) Pay Best Buy to install them - $65

Will this upgrade alone be worthwhile ? Is there any other steps that are requires - there was discussion about sound dampening - is that needed for my purposes?

Thanks in advance.

Hello no need for sound dampening mb quart or infinity is what I would recommend. look up what size and units it takes on crutch field.com

are the speakers really the issue here? or is it the quality of the head unit / amp?
because you can buy expensive speakers but if the quality of the signal they receive is poor, they will sound like *****

Is there an easy way to tell if it's a speaker or head unit / amp issue? I sometimes get weak radio reception, if that helps.
If a head / amp issue, any easy fix?

i am not sure how to confirm
i've replaced the speakers and it did nothing
