Reading quite a few threads on sound installs and most seem over my head, I'm a suspension/off-road guy, never learned the sound side because I never cared. I'm not an audio-head by any means, joked that I've been tone-deaf my whole life.
That being said, made the mistake of buying the wire a JL Rubicon 8.4" Screen and I can tell the sound is definitely different/better than my Sport S 7" Screen. I don't care about it being loud, I rarely take mine above 15 now with the top on, and 20-25 with it off so I'm not maxing out my volume as it, but I can absolutely tell a difference with her having a sub in the back, music just sounds "fuller".
Looking for recommendations for a "Stage 1" upgrade, plug and play speakers that will improve the sound. I'm fine pulling dash/replacing speakers, cutting plastic if need be. Under and behind my rear seat is pretty well packed, so I don't have room for a subwoofer there, maybe under the front seats but I'm not sold on that. if there's a way to make the speakers in the soundbar deeper (don't even know what size the factory speakers are) to compensate for not having a sub I'd prefer that.
Are the upgrade "Kits" that the companies on youtube install the way to go, or is there better options out there?
