Tacoma Speakers Trash? I think so.. Here's what I did

the key amp is small enough to hide behind the dash, took less than an hour to hook up and you can actually hear the back speakers. The rear level of the factory entune headunit is extremely low.

 

Alpine power pack is another good small amp that I have seen working and it seems good. Similar size and power to the kicker key.

 

rockford fosgate power series

 

Huh, like you hope it doesn't? It's happened on every year so far, don't know what 2020's would be the exception, just something to keep an eye out, I love SW, have had a few of them, hopefully Toyota does right by SW owners moving forward.

 

who is only replacing their tweeters?? lol

 

Yeah I don't see that as a good plan unless you can't buy it all at once. Then still put it in a closet or something till you can do all the speakers if you are replacing the dash speakers with tweeters.

 

Isn’t the “tweeter“ a 2.5 mid speaker? I plan on putting a 3.5 in mine and new rears too, leave jbl amp and all if that stuff alone.

 

Mid? I'd call it a high

 

Quite a few. Hopefully not you

 

Yes, I would hope it doesn't lol but it might just give me an excuse to get a free new paint job 2 years down the road. My 2 colors I like is SW and the gunmetal grey

 

I replaced all my speakers already, I just now need to buy/install tweeters. Looking for recommendations, most of everyone leans towards the subaru kicker tweeters

 

Why not? I have a brand new truck. Going to start with the tweeters for now until I can add a sub and then finally replace the door speakers. Its all about what you want out of your sound system. Lots of people are happy with the stock system and the tweeters are a great upgrade or starting point. From what I have read just the tweeters is quite the upgrade.

 

I just got kicker on all 4 doors and a 10in sub in the back. The door speakers had 2 tweeters in the front and 1 in the back so I didn't add the pillar mount ones.

 

Just curious, since you mentioned the OEM Audio+ tweeters, why you wouldn’t go with them for the complete upgrade? What made you decide on the Kickers?

 

I wasn't looking to give it an expensive audio system yet, just because I don't think I will keep my taco long term. Although I want to get another in the future, a TRD Pro. So I just spent under $200, found those kickers with great reviews from Tacoma owners. I left the tweeters out because I wasn't sure what would be the best one to get. If I knew I was going to have this long term, I would get the best audio option from the jump! Would you say get the kicker tweeters to match? Does the fact that it's the same brand help?

 

What head unit did you get?

 

I've been pretty happy with my JBL speakers. But if the base model is worse I can see why you would be disappointed.

 

How would you rate the kicker tweeters?

 

They made it so when you sat in the stock and heard the radio, you NEEDED to upgrade to the JBL.

 

I never had separate tweeters before so I don't have any point to compare to but I do think they sound good. That they plug in and mount up with out anything special is definitely a plus.
