    H/K audio upgrade - VAST Improvment

    ANC has been disconnected via the harness that a vendor sells - can't remember name right now. I really did not notice much difference at all with and without ANC.

    H/K audio upgrade - VAST Improvment

    Yes - I did have to cut out a portion of the plastic panel behind the speaker. There is an indentation where the factory speaker magnet fits. I cut out that circle with an oscillating tool and the faital's drop in. They are just a little deeper than the factory speaker, but still have the...

    HK system speaker replacement

    Iirc, the HAT stuff is rather inefficient for use with the stock amp. That is why I chose the faital's, they are very efficient as are the CDT's. It is actually louder and sounds better than stock. The faitals took a little work to integrate properly, but not a big deal. Let me know if you...

    HK system speaker replacement

    Sorry for the slow respopnse - have not been on here in a while. I did move forward on this and posted here - https://5thgenrams.com/community/threads/h-k-audio-upgrade-vast-improvment.20790/ to describe what I did and the results. I am very pleased thus far. Night / day difference honestly...

    H/K audio upgrade - VAST Improvment

    Polyfill helps by making the speaker act as though it is in a bigger enclosure. I think the HK sub is worthless, but I did not try the polyfill. Try it and let us know your thoughts.

    H/K audio upgrade - VAST Improvment

    The 6x9's were the last thing I did and the difference was literally night and day. I'd do the 4 6x9's and see what you think, then expand from there. You will be happy either way I think.

    H/K audio upgrade - VAST Improvment

    The faitals were $33.00 each shipped free from parts express. The CDT's were $96 a pair iirc on their website. So about $475.00 in the mids / highs. I also got the respective plugs and soldered them on the speakers. The box was $460 shipped and I had the subs and amp already. The only...

    H/K audio upgrade - VAST Improvment

    I just got done doing some upgrades to my audio system and figured I'd throw the info out there in case there was interest. To start, I have a 2020 Limited with H/K. I can't believe they would put a system in that level of truck that sounded that bad. The subwoofer is a piece of garbage -...

    HK system speaker replacement

    Hi All, I am in the process of replacing the speakers in my system. I am disconnecting the awful subwoofer and replacing it with 2 13TW5's in an MTI box running off a JL1200/1. I plan to replace the mids/highs with Faital Pro 3FE22 full range 3" speakers. I am going to run the factory amp on...

    Has anyone got an update for their 12 inch

    Mine did the same thing at about 6:30 PM yesterday. Came up just as I was getting out to go into Target. I ok'd and it was done when I came out. Not sure what changed.

    Out of my 2018 Ecoturd and into a 2020 Limited 5.7

    My truck was not subject to the AEM. It covered up to 2016 iirc. The issues are with reliability. Like I said, for the vast majority of my ownership I was very happy with the truck. MPG was my only disappointment. For me it was both a work AND personal vehicle. I could not afford to be...

    Out of my 2018 Ecoturd and into a 2020 Limited 5.7

    I loved mine at first too. Summer of 2018 I was getting 28 MPG. That disappeared that winter and never came back. 21 is the best I got recently. Glad I paid $1 more per gallon for diesel. The ecodiesel is riddled with issues. There is an active recall because the EGR cooler cracks, leaks...

    Out of my 2018 Ecoturd and into a 2020 Limited 5.7

    Hi All, Just bought my 2020 Limited yesterday. Got a smokin' deal on it. Traded in my 2018 Ecodiesel - because while I liked most everything about the truck, the engine is a piece of crap. Hopefully this one works out better.
