Pioneer stereo! Stock vs aftermarket

[dakota.morgan91]

Is there a significant difference between the Pioneer system that comes with the Gladiator and Quadratec's version? https://www.quadratec.com/p/alpine/full-sound-system-upgrade-wrangler-jl-gladiator-jt-pss-23wra

quadratec link is for the aftermarket alpine sub and tweeter upgrade. i’ve got the 7” uconnect; i found the alpine sub on amazon for $899, did that along with the dodge dart speakers in the sound bar and made a huge difference.

i have never listened to the “stock” alpine upgrade so i can’t compare. there are less expensive options to get more bass in the truck, but this seems to be the only plug and play “easy” option—IMO list price at $1299 is much to high of a pricetag, $1099 is on the border of too high but wouldn’t be a a terrible buy.

if you are going to DIY then this is a great option, if you’re going to pay an installer you’re probably better off with a different option as a lot of the “cost” with this is the custom bracket and wiring harness making it plug and play.
