    A member did a comparison a while back. Worth reading the whole thread (and this one) if you're considering this system:

    Still rockin the O+ system and like it as much as day 1. Got the new dual subwoofer addition they came out with recently in the living room but haven't installed it yet, too cold outside and I'm in no rush.

    I had a audio dealer install by system, it rocks... audio control amp 6 channel with built in line drivers, digital design components in the front, co axial in the rear doors and a 6.5 enclosed sub behind the rear seat.

    Just Ordered from ********* and was very unhappy with their stuff. I wish I would have ordered the OEM PLUS AUDIO. ********* Plug n Play system are not really plug n play and require modifications to work. ********* will leave you out to dry when it comes to contacting you back when you have an issues. I used there ticketing system and texting system with no response. I sent an email and that took a while too. The kit really leaves you wanting something else, and there customer service is really lacking. When you reach out to them to get help adjusting their amp they try to blame my speakers and said I should have purchased their speakers through them as they were trying to make another sell. I was informed after finally getting somebody to email me back, that the issues I had been having with the tweeter brackets they had corrected it. The person who machine the amplifier bracket drilled the bolt holes for the seat holes way off. The amplifier has a nasty hissing noise and they refuse to help with and blame my aftermarket speakers for the issue. I wouldn't definitely order them again.

    Update: *********.com have agreed to a return of my items after having to file a dispute with the BBB and my credit card company. They sent me RMA, and I offered to take back all the components even the ones which I had to modified to fit what they called a plug 'n' play system. After receiving my items a couple days verified through a FEDEX tracking number, I have had not received any communications from the company confirming my return has been received.

    I had a 2015 trd sport with JBL and just had the OEM installed on my new truck few days ago. They are both great but after tweaking the bass and treble I am more happy with OEM sounds great!

    You could probably piece together a better lot for the money but I really love my oemAudio plus system. Sounds great and it’s reversible.

    Spent 1450 on mine and OEM audio had much better reviews than taco tunes, Dan is a huge help there. Love mine and don’t have to crank it up anymore on the highway. Sounds great, have had it for over 2 years now..

    I too went down this road. I'm fairly picky about my audio. I listened to quite a few different systems, including the OEM+ in a '16 Taco (with dual subs), and although it was substantially better than the JBL, it just wasn't the feel I was looking for. With Mr. Marv's help, I ended up with a JL Audio / Audio Frog system that I'm thrilled with. I'd highly suggest contacting Mr. Marv for his help.

    I just had the oem audio installed in my
    Truck today. Didn’t wanna mess with the install myself so I had it done at Best Buy. Have a couple problems now. The bass knob doesn’t do a thing. Anyone else have this problem? Also my head unit isn’t connecting to the internet or whatever it uses to find the weather and update the time. I tried to set the time manually but it won’t let me. What can I check to figure this out?
