Sounds like you may be a true Audiophile like myself!!! If so, you also realized the factory stereo/equipment is garbage. I took the liberty of fixing that. After many hours and iterations, I finally ended up with a great stereo! You have many great questions, and there is not a single answer for all of them, as it really depends on what you are looking to spend and what you are looking to get out of it.
The stock speakers really are not super bad... but, if you shooting for a budget upgrade. I would simply replace the HU, that is the most important piece of a stereo... as it controls the quality of sound your speakers will play. The problem with this, is that the factory Amp inside the car... doesn't play nice with aftermarket stereos. It uses a wire for its low voltage out (instead of a pre out low voltage that most aftermarket stereos will use) So I would recommend getting a HU AND a small 4 channel amp.Next would be getting into the realm of subwoofers. These can make a big difference and add a lot more range in a stereo system. Especially because it means that your other speakers in the car no longer need to play lower frequencies, and can focus on the higher range frequencies (which they handle much better). A sub would require yet another amp (you can also get a single amp that powers both 4 channels and a sub if you prefer..). Then of course getting a sub(s) and the enclosure to go in, and you will need an amp wiring kit to get all the power to it.
I would start with these items, if your not happy with it... you can continue to upgrade... better speakers and bigger amps etc.. but this should get you off to a great start. Something most people forget when wanting to improve their audio, is that it is only as good as the SOURCE you are feeding it. Meaning if you have crappy slow internet speeds, and streaming a terrible bit rate from Pandora.... via bluetooth. Your quality is still going to be sub-par at best... even with all the upgrades... when comparing to playing a losslless/FLAC audio file that is directly connected and has no compression.

If you have any questions regarding aftermarket stereos, let me know. I have done all the work myself and have countless hours and configurations to make it all work.
