    2020 RAM Laramie 4WD Audio System Build w/ 12" Display and JL Audio Stealthbox

    Is it possible that those claiming no ANC issues kept their 6x9’s out of phase? Update: Disregard, it appears that is exactly what was done. They swapped them back to factory and ANC was restored. Interesting…

    Interesting…you read where people have used the factory subwoofer inputs and have had no ANC issues and others say they have.

    Speaker swaps on the HK system

    Is anyone seeing any real benefit with swapping out the dash and door speakers? Seems to be some conflicting information with losing volume and no real gain in SQ. I have a 24 and it sounds pretty damn good, just needs more low end. I use lossless and Hi Res music only. I would think higher...

    Uconnect 5 Box requires service . . .

    Mine is doing this now at 1800 miles. What is the real fix? I left my truck on, without running. Clear view of the sky. Truck actually shuts off if you leave it on.

    2019 ram HK system complete system upgrade

    That is why I went with the Hertz 3.5’s. Way more efficient then any 3.5 on the market.

    Anyone notice the remote starter for 2019 lacks in comparison to the last generation?

    My only complaint is that we can’t change the duration.

    Harman Kardon too much bass

    After changing out the 3.5 JBLs I had to the much higher sensitivity of the Hertz 3.5’s, I was able to raise my bass and mid back up. Seems after the amp update, the fronts couldn’t keep up with bass. After more messing around I’m at -1 bass, flat on mid and +2 on the treble. The JBLs would get...

    Harman Kardon too much bass

    The system before the update was very well balanced, just needed a tad more volume, not distorted bass. Most people like distortion and simply don’t realize what a truly balanced system sounds like.

    5th Gen Stock Stereo Upgrade Options?

    I should have went with gut knowing the Hertz would do better based on sensitivity regardless of the 2.3 ohm JBLs. They just can’t keep up in comparison. They also fit better with a shallower depth and magnet.

    5th Gen Stock Stereo Upgrade Options?

    Decided to try out the Hertz 3.5’s in the dash of my HK system in place of the JBLs. Glad I did, way more sensitive. I was able to turn my bass and mid back up to give a fuller sound. Seems after the amp update all they did was bump up the bass maybe raise the gain a tad. The bass was...

    The AudioTools is one of the best, been around a long time. That is what I use. You can stream it across Bluetooth and use the app at the same to check polarity. Worked great for me!

    5th Gen Stock Stereo Upgrade Options?

    On the HK system, left and right out of phase and the center was in phase. Needed to reverse harness for left and right only.

    5th Gen Stock Stereo Upgrade Options?

    They fit alright. I think the passenger side was a little tight due to the duct, but it fit. I have the HK system. If I did again, I would have gone with the Hertz 3.5’s due to there much higher sensitivity. The factory HKs are 4 ohm and not 2 ohm as someone posted before.

    I measured the HK dash 3.5’s today they measured between 3.7 and 4ohm. Not 2 ohm. I also did confirm the two outside 3.5’s are wired out of phase. The center was in phase. I noticed after wiring the JBLs in phase for the dash the vocals become closer to center as they should be.
