I just finished replacing the speakers and added a amp to my sx190. I didn't want to spend much but wanted good sound. I was torn between polk and JL. I ended up going with the JL mx650's. I replaced all 4 speakers and the guy at the audio store recommended the jl mx280 amp. It was night and day difference from the head unit and adding this amp. I know it might not compare to most systems but it is very clear and the bass is amazing IMO. All in under $600. Would definitely recommend this setup for someone that's not wanting to spend alot of money but you still want good sound.

That is a great system - and a great price!
With this setup, I think you may be actually pretty close to the point of diminishing returns.
