Do standard American speakers replace the 't' in words like 'better' with a 'd'?

Sort of.
This situation only occurs if the stress is on the vowel just prior to the t, and it's not actually a "d" sound. It's a voiced, alveo-dental flap, which is the same sound as the single 'r' in Spanish.
Even if the word contains a d, the flap is used instead for North American English. Compare the American and British pronunciations of the word "Adam."

You want to upgrade your 2007 jeep liberty sound system what do you need to get you want to replace all of the speakers with ones that have more watts but how big and what else do you need thank you?
I am in the process of replacing the factory speakers in my wife's 2002 Liberty. Unfortunately, the deck does not drive the speakers, there are small amps in each of the front door speakers. Therefore, you cannot replace them with aftermarket speakers unless you replace the deck as well. The other option is to replace them, add an amp and rewire the entire system. This is not what I bargained for when I started this project but in the end it will be a lot better system then the factory system.
