Why doesn't my sony xplod car stereo have bass?

I have a saturn and the system that came with the car,(just a typical saturn stereo) could make my car windows shake when I turned up a rap song or something. I bought a sony xplod system and now every song sounds so high-pitched and there's hardly any base sound no matter which equalizer i turn it on, or even if i put the low on + 10, and the high on -10. Why doesn't it have bass? I've gone in twice to make sure it is wired correctly and i'm pretty sure it is. Also, I put new speakers in it and they are good speakers because they worked great with my original stereo system. I do not have a sub.

You don't need an amp or sub to make the windows or rearview mirror bump. What size speakers did you get and how many? anything larger than a pair of 6'' ovals should work. Try checking out the equalizer settings on your head unit and make sure the levels are set correctly.

They aren't the best speakers, but putting an amp on speakers does help. Really, if you want the bass so much, just go buy a 10" sub for like 70$, then buy a cheap mono channel amp that puts out just enough power to the sub, and this will give you good bass. Like 150RMS will bump.
