LMM: What sounds systems is everyone running?

[Awenta]

The speakers are starting to distort. I just don't have the time to rewire everything right now.

You'll want to get 2 ohm aftermarket speakers if replacing the factory Bose door speakers and otherwise keeping the Bose amp and stuff.

The stock Bose speakers are somewhere around 3 ohms...so if you go up to a typical 4 ohm aftermarket speaker, it will be a little quieter....so if you're looking at aftermarket speakers, try to find some that are 2-ohm. You can use 4 ohm and it'll work fine and sound good, it just wont get quite as loud.

That's exactly what I thought it was. Thank you Ben.

The bose is wired differently, and dependent on year uses the mos transmission system. When doing aftermarket speakers, it's best to route around the bose and remove OEM stuff where appropriate. The bose isn't that much better than the regular OEM system, it really just has sub channel which enhances the rest of the system. It's totally sufficient for most people, music people find it acceptable, but easily improved.

The Bose LUX system like Tom is talking about is far better than base system and quite a bit better than the regular Bose that came in the trucks. In my opinion, it is better than most of the aftermarket head unit/amp/speaker setups most people throw together that I've heard. Is it the best out there? No way, but it's better than anything I could have had for the money I spent, and I still get to keep all my steering wheel buttons, RSA, door dinger, etc.
