Alright guys. This is very new to me. I have the base audio system in my truck. Truck came with the ra1 3” radio that I swapped to the ra2 5” radio shortly after buying the truck. Added the factory backup camera and steering wheel audio controls so looking to keep those functions. I’m finally looking into upgrading the stereo system but I’m looking at piecing it together. I am currently looking at the jl audio stealth sub box with the w3v3 subwoofer from Crutchfield and a 5 channel amp. Most likely the Rockford fosgate r2 750x5 amp. I am not set on the head unit and have no clue on what to do for speakers. I’m not sure as I’ve seen mentioned about rewiring the dash speakers separate from the doors or using bass blockers. I am not familiar with the different brands for speakers either. I am trying to keep a low to medium budget as I’m not an audiophile. Just want better clearer sound with a nice bass. The majority of my music is rock and country. What are some good speaker options and some pointers for the front doors and dash speakers. Also what head units are the better ones. I wouldn’t mind CarPlay but definitely looking for something fairly simple. I’ve seen some have the canbus compatibility to read and display engine stats.
