More speakers=better sound?

I guess my ears have just gotten used to my stereo already, but I was wondering today, do more speakers equal better sound quality? I could squeeze a few in the doors, and other places, but would it really do any good? Just curious...

No, better speakers = better sound quality. A set of MBs will always sound better then a bunch of jensen speakers.

I agree more speakers doesn't mean better quality but it will be louder.

Yes, I also agree. More speakers don’t necessarily mean better sound. You are better off buying a good set of speakers giving them decent power and placing them in a good spot in the car.
