Hello all, brand new member so be easy! I know this has been discussed multiple times because I did do a search before making this post.

I have a 2016 Ram 2500 crew cab with base audio and base speakers. Im an aluminum welder/fabricator with quite a bit of electrical experience. (Although not much with audio type stuff). Mostly 480v and up!

Im wanting to purchase a speaker upgrade plug and play bundle for my truck. Looking to upgrade all six speakers. I also want to Add an amp to the speaker upgrade.

Can someone please tell me which bundle to purchase and which amplifier I need? I would also like to purchase whichever harnesses are necessary to keep the install neat and simple. I do understand that additional wiring will be needed to power an amp but was hoping everything else was plug and play.

I went to the crutch field website but had trouble deciphering what all I need. Keep in mind I am electrically and mechanically inclined but don’t have the necessary knowledge about audio equipment to get everything I need.

I’ve said all of that to say this…..

Probably should have added that my truck is a tradesman and has the small LCD display. Not the 8” one.

All depends on your budget the extent of stereo upgrades you would like.
Best place to source a complete all-in-one-stop-shop is at Crutchfield.

They'll sort you out nicely!

As for recommendations, well, for me personally I wanted high detailed sound quality so I went with Focal speakers for all six positions (dash/front & rear doors).

Kenwood Excelon Reference DMX975XR head unit, 2 x Audiomobile EVO 2410 subs under the rear seat, 2 x Kenwood amps (total of 2100W of power), and a DB 5 farad digital capacitor.

All professionally installed and tuned to audio perfection.

Good luck with your upgrades and enjoy the sound of music ;)

Sorry, should have said that the kicker upgrade would be fine. It’s not so much about budget as simplicity and decent sound.
