If you have the A3 bose system, I'll say it again:

Attach the +, tape off the ground, and you are set.  No new speakers.
And they sound 100x better with a better head unit.  I didn't install
a sub, but I suppose if I wanted to the pre-outs on my Clarion 7375 
would work just fine.  But even without a sub, it sounds good.
