After a chat with Crutchfield's sales/tech about my '25 Rubicon with a factory (i.e. non-Alpine) radio, I wound up ordering four Kicker speakers for dash & soundbar, along with the Kicker amp & the LC5i Pro & harnesses. The instructions for installing the LC5i Pro were quite clear, but after...

My 2021 Gladiator has just over 500 miles on it, and I purchased it brand new in December 2021. Since day one it's had this odd issue where after 15-20 minutes of radio usage the speakers develop this crackling / popping sound. The best way to describe it is that it sounds like an old CD that...

Hey everyone, The easiest and cheapest upgrade I did to my JK was opening up the speaker housing and stuffing it with polyfill. This helped increase the quality of the sound quite a bit. I ended up upgrading the base speakers (non-premium) with kickers as well. Do the JLs and JTs have the...
