Question ALTO ICE - TROUBLE - Please HELP

Hi All,

I planned out a phased ICE installation in my ALTO, the plan was as follows

Phase1 :
Front Speakers: Hertz ESK165 (6" 2-way component speakers).
HU: Pioneer 6950 with ipod docked

Phase2 :
Amp: JBL CS
REAR SPEAKERS: Hertz ESK165(5")

Phase 3 :
Sub(If Required)

Now the phased approach was naturally coz of budget constraints,

It turns out that it is sought of painful to install the 6" speakers in the front so i settled for the Hertz ESK165 (4" 2-way component speakers) and the Pioneer 6950 HU

But this combo has resulted in a disaster, the 4" speakers standalone are no good and looks like have to straight away jump to the phase2 or have to make some changes to phase2 immediately.

Have already spend some 4.5K(Speakers) + 8.5K(HU + IPOD Cable) = 13K and at this point the system sounds just awefull

Guys, I need advice on any immediate remedies to solve the problem, remaining budget at this point is around 10K.

I want to avoid a sub, coz i am presuming that alto would not be able to handle the boom-boom.

Please HELP !
