Yes sir. You get three tries with the "make an offer" every 24 hours. So I spent 3-4 days trying to get a price I liked.

Just installed the sub/amp last night into my 2014 Ram Express crewcab. It is a huge improvement over the base speaker setup. I also have the kicker 3.5's in the dash. It sounds great. This is the base system with the uconnect 5.0 headunit. I would definitely recommend both!

Awesome, what I love to hear :D

FedEX finally showed up last night while I was at school. Checked the boxes when I got home, everything looks complete and in good condition. I'll be installing this weekend.
I'll have to create another thread since this one kinda got hijacked.

I'm excited to do this. I have been looking for a simple upgrade without in lines and all that extra and getting the big storage spot. Thanks again for this find ill do the upgrade and 3.5's as by the sounds the 6x9's upfront don't really need it.

Anyone know anything about the rear speakers? Are the good enough in 12 with alpine

Would this upgrade package be a big improvement over the Laramie Longhorn Alpine?

no cap it near by, they are a couple bucks cheaper, GemSen's website just has links to all the companys websites, ill try to harass dealers around here to see what kind of price they will give me

yes GS is importer/distributor, they will send you to local dealers. Agree, ask for a good deal, then if they need it demo'd to another potential customer, tell them to give you a ring to show your truck :D

We do install for companies we market together, but there is a great place in Edmond. We dont sale direct, we are the manufacture.

I'm really considering this. I have a 2014 express and the sound system is ****. I listen to rap music and I have to turn the bass to -9 cause it sounds so horrible. The sound is so distorted. I'm listening to music without bass. I've always had good systems. I'm a fan of 8" to 10" subs. I don't like crazy bass but I like quality. Kicker is a good product.

If I don't have the alpine system... do I have to buy an amp? I was looking at something on kickers site. The sub is affordable but the amp is insanely over priced.

Can anyone confirm this?

Great thread guys. Apologies up front, I don't know jack about stereo upgrades.

This is what I have: 2014 RAM 2500HD with the 9 speaker Alpine system and 8.4AN/RA4 head unit.

What will be plug and play on my truck?

Thanks again.
