Hey guys, I'm Shane. Great forum you have and much great info. I am a long time mopar owner, but new to the 4th Gen Ram. I traded my 04 QC Hemi 2wd that had a crap ton of mods from stereo to long tube headers and what not for a 2013 Big Hom 4x4 with 5k miles a couple of weeks ago. While I LOVE the new truck I am missing my stereo pretty hard core. I have the 8.4AN without Alpine / sub and have been reading in various threads as so what some of the options might be for plug and play systems as I dont want to heavily mod this truck as much as I did my previous Ram.
I see many are replacing their stock 3.5s and door speakers with the Kickers and that may well be the path I take. My previous Ram I removed the center seat and had a 12in sub box there and covered it to look like the stock seat. In the new truck I dont want quite as much bass but overall better sound as I think the stock just sounds flat and muddy to my ears.
Question really is...given my set up, what do you 4th Gen guru's recommend for a sub under the rear seat and what door speakers would you run if you are not going to amp them? Or is amping the doors something that "has" to be done get the sound and quality needed?
Appreciate all input and apologize for the post, but I've read about 30 threads and have just gotten overwhelmed with info on so many systems lol.
