Upgrade to Sound System .... Crutchfield?

[NC_Overland]

Mine is 200w for the front and soundbar speakers, and another 250 o think for the 10” subwoofer. It’s 200 something. Also plenty.

I remember the window sticker saying 480 watts. I don’t know the break down.

Must be a Colorado thing, but my leds have never gotten blocked by snow.

Spring snows excluded, maybe it’s a dry snow thing? I don’t remember ever having a problem on my Audi’s LEDs there either.

The total system output is 480W. 480 peak, but it’s plenty. I don’t put the treble up past 2 or it hurts my ears.

No one that I know of uses heated LED lights. Even my Audis and BMWs I’m pretty sure hav never had heaters on their LEDs and they cost quite a bit more and speaking of cost, they price it competitively. I need to look at my window sticker, I’m pretty sure I didn’t pay $2k for it on my 2020, but if it cost $2k it’s really not that expensive to me because I used to pay way more than that for my systems in the 90s, at 90s prices, that didn’t sound that much better. Just more bass.

Oracles heated LED lights are the same price as factory, so idk where you're getting info they cost more.

And you said it yourself, "PEAK" power. Not CONTINUOUS power, also remember higher frequencies require less power vs lower frequencies, by a factor that multiplies as the frequency drops. So while 1w RMS (continuous) works for 6k Hz and above, you'll need 10w RMS for 60 Hz and more for those below to be at the same perceived audio level. So that 12w RMS at all speakers, and that "200w" sub is "200 max" aka peak, so closer to 100w RMS.

Does it sound even/compliment each other, maybe sure. But it will never have the same output, quality, or depth that an aftermarket system would, even for a similar price.

Name another brand that had their headlight recessed 4"+ into the front of the vehicle in a can esentially, I'll wait.

Other brands don't have this issue. Even the Cherokee had this issue early on, the actual low beam is the round light below the DRL, and I've seen them clogged with snow and very dim because people don't want to get out and clean them.
