Clarion Head Unit (ARX7570) and a 6-CD Changer (CDC655z)

I have a 2002 SE without the Bose setup (i think they are still Clarion).

I miss the bass produced by both the ESX amps and the IDQ subs, and was wondering if I could upgrade the audio in my 2002SE with these?

I know these products are old now, but would they work, technically? Would it be worth replacing the front speakers with the Diamond M561s?

Thanks - MN
