Default Replacing stock radio...

I have a 2012 s60 and want to replace the stock radio, great sound just not loud enough.. I can't seem to find anything to replace it with other than completely customizing my dash. any one out there replace their radio to an after market for better/louder sound??

Well my first post was WAY off but this post clears things up:

It looks like your best bet is to look into locating a vehicle with the top line stereo system in it and pulling the components. However, if you're already have the top line head unit then louder may not be possible but cleaner and quieter might be if you're up for installing dynamat or a similar product on your doors, floors and roof. I have matted multiple cars over the years including a class C RV and I am still amazed at the difference a sealed, ring free environment makes when it comes to sound.

The carpet in our cars is podded in that it is pre-molded and dropped in. The roll matting won't work all that well thanks to all of the contours in the floor boards but the smaller mats that you can cut with shears work quite well if you have the time and patience to trim and fit.
