The standard bose setup in Omegas is undoubtedly better than the standard non-bose setup in Omegas as DaveDND points out.  The external amp, the subs, better quality door speakers all help to increase the quality.

Not sure just changing speakers alone would bring a standard Omega non bose system up to bose quality - Dave DND is the expert, so I'd bow to his expertise, but I am sceptical.

Certainly an aftermarket HU with decent speakers, possibly a small amp will outperform the Omega bose system

Modern speakers can indeed give a real depth of sound that the BOSE system is so famous for -

I fully understand the scepticism, and its  shame you are not closer to me, for I could demonstrate very easily what can be achieved for very little money in one of my own cars.

No disagreement about that, but I thought the idea was to retain the original head unit?

A good set of speakers, not a set of cheapies will dramatically enhance the sound, and if the budget will allow for a small amp, then this can easily be run off the OEM head unit to literally shake the car if desired.

The only limit is your imagination - not budget !!
