I think the factory Premium sound system's components are just fine. I really see no need to replace them and spend insane amounts of money re-doing the whole system. My biggest problem with it is that, unless you use surround mode (which I don't because it sounds like shit), you really only use 6 of the speakers available (the front 3 ways). Simply swapping out the rear subs for better 8's (or retrofit 10's if you want to), and amplifying them separately or doing what I did and throwing a 10" in the trunk instead of replacing the stock woofers gets you a more than adequate sound system for top up and down audio. I've blasted it for 3 hours, top down, from Houston to SA playing a wide variety of music and never noticed distortion.
