Default Sound Systems

I need to upgrade my sound system, I got stock speakers with a cheap kenwood deck that came with the truck when I bought it. So the best way to find out about products on here is to let the other people BRAG ABOUT IT!!

SO COME ON!! TELL ME WHAT YOU GOT AND SHOW ME THEM PICTURES!

Almost anything aftermarket will be better than factory.

I would start with 4-door speakers 6x8's for easy install and good mids, and a touch of bass. Infinity, Alpine, Rockford, and JL all make decent ones for decent prices.

I have four Kicker door speakers (specifics escape me), two Kicker L7s, Hifonics BRUTUS 2400/2100 amp, Power Acoustik 2din headunit, and lots of 0/1 Rockford Fosgate wire.

I have a cheap system now but I dream of a complete Rockford fosgate system. But for a 65 dollar subwoofer my little boss audio phantom had smoke pouring out of the box and both voice coils are still good and it still sounds good surprisingly.

Alpine head unit with two Rockford fosgate component speakers and two 10" subs hooked up to 4 channel amp... Sounds very clean. One of my favorite things about my truck.

I have a JVC head, kicker 6x8s all the way around and a sony xplod 12" sub and amp that I got for next to nothing. I'm not a huge bass guy, but when I turn it up, it goes boom.
