hey I'm new the whole car audio thing and I want to up grade my stock system I hear a lot about component systems. What would be the advantage of buying components over just replacing the stock speakers with new ones

Component speakers have 2 separate speakers, the woofer and tweeter. It also uses a crossover to filter out different frequencies to each individual speaker.

Coaxials (what a majority of stock speakers are) sometimes have an integrated tweeter, but some stockers dont even. So the coax's rely on the woofer to do most of the frequency range, which doesnt sound all that good.

Components > Coax's. Components sound a lot better as compared to coax's.
