I had JBL in my 16 Ram, but wanted to see what other options were out there. My JBL crackled at high volume with Apline stereo. Would prefer better quality.

Only interested in 2 ohm. Those of you who have 4 ohm, are in fact losing volume. Go back to original if you don't believe me.

Partially true. If the speakers have the same sensitivity rating then yes the 4 ohm will not be as loud as 2 ohm. If the 4 ohm has a higher sensitivity rating, it can still be just as loud.

That being said, I went with the JBL GX302s and have not had any trouble with crackling at higher volumes. I put these in the dash and headliner and JBL GX963s in the doors.

The JL Audio are 4 ohm and 83 sensitivity, the JBL are 2.2 ohm and 89 sensitivity.
