Question need advice: $450 cupon to best buy

not exactly a store on the top of my list but my credit card rewards come out to $450 at best buy.

i need some advice on what to get there. I have a good head unit (AVIC) now i'm thinking of:

small sub in stock location or some sort of self-amped sub

or

replacing all four speakers

or

amplifiying the stock speakers




any of this possible for $450?

what would you guys do?
