    Is there any audio gurus that can help me figure out what I need as far as audio upgrade for my 2021 SR?

    I’ve seen the previous threads and im still unable to come to a clear cut conclusion

    I know I need an amp I’ve seen everybody talk about the kicker key200.4 but I can’t find it anywhere in stock

    I am pretty sure I’ll go with the kicker speakers due to the awesome reviews I’ve seen of them

    Now since I know what speakers I’ll be going with, is there another amp I can use? Is there anything else I would need for this upgrade?

    Any help is greatly appreciated, Thank you in advance

    You'll get lots of great suggestions. I got the Kicker Key 200, I've noticed they aren't in stock, the replacement is the Kicker 400, I believe it roughly the same size and only a few more $$. If you're looking for a true upgrade with GOOD bass but nothing competitive, and relatively inexpensive, the Kicker CS series in the doors and the Subaru Kicker tweeter route is deffinately the way to go. I put my Kicker Key on a bracket under the passenger seat and for the money vs. performance, I'd do it again 10x. Just my $0.02.
    Go to Crutchfield.com they give you the Speaker adapters and install kits with your purchase. I'd use crutchfield hands down over Amazon for audio equiptment any day. Their customer service is top notch.

    They make some nice plug and play stuff that will really make your overall experience a game changer and you can eliminate all these add ons . The radio and 4 speakers will be a game changer . You can always do a sub and an amp later for next tier .
