I agree.... I'd think it would help, but apparently Biff doesn't agree. I already added a sub (10" Infinity). It definitely helps with the low end, but the mids and highs still need work. Some recordings sound really good (especially accoustic), but for an upgraded JBL system, I guess I'm...

I did do a search on the replacement of factory speakers and found http://www.toyota-4runner.org/showthread.php?s=&threadid=1817&highlight=upgrade+speakers. It is good information, but I was wondering if anyone had actually done the upgrade of just the factory speakers, and was willing to say...

I want to improve the sound quality in my 4runner (10 spkr JBL) but want to keep the head unit. Has anyone just changed out the door speakers? Did it improve the sound quality a lot? Also, is the volume the same as it was with the stock speakers? I'm wondering if the stock amp has enough...

As far as just the sub not working this makes perfect sense. There is a 4 wire clip that runs from the amp into the JBL built in sub. I'm sure that he just uncliped this and spliced onto those wires that are supposed to drive the JBL sub. This is the same thing that I did, accept I just used...

I got them from a local toyota dealer. I didn't even buy my 4runner from them. I just asked if they could print out the wireing schematic for the radio. They have to print it for you... can't fax because it's color coded. Make sure you specify what audio system you have. They are obviously...

I'm really interested in how it sounds once you change out the door speakers. I'm assuming the factory ones are low impedience so that they are more efficient. I'm wondering how tough it would be to get a good balance if you have some 4 ohm and say some 2 ohm(factory) speakers. Did anyone...

Check out the Infinity 6800CS. This is a 5X7/6X8 component set. It's at least closer to the 6X9 components that toyota puts in the 4runner. I'm looking at putting new components into the front doors as well. For someone who did this: Where is the crossover for the speakers? Is it an inline...

I'm putting in a sub in the next couple of days (as soon as it gets here from crutchfield) I asked the tech support guy from crutchfield about the easiest way of getting at the sub to run an amp, and the instructions he had were to remove the whole inside right panel of the cargo area. Is this...

Won't fit a 4th Gen.. will it? I looked at this sub from Qlogic as well. I don't think it will fit into a 4th gen.... Are there any other options other than this stealth box from JL?

help please.... This should be a really easy question for someone to comment on. Can someone please help?

Any more info? Did you ever get a reply from anyone on this or get any more information yourself? I'm looking to put in an aftermarket sub and I am wondering about the same information.... Thanks.

I would like to put an aftermarket sub in the back of my new 04 (10 spr JBL). How easy is it to get at the sub to splice in new leads for the new external amp? I see a panel around the sub enclosure, but didn't look close enough to see if it is removable, or if I have to remove the whole right...

any more thoughts on a sub install? I just purchased a 04 Sport V8. I have the JBL 10 speaker system, but agree that it doesn't have too much of a "low end". I have a 10 bandpass sub and a pioneer GM-X542 AMP (bridgable to 150W) that I would like to add. The post above says something about...

what headphones? What kind of headphones will work with the rear seat audio? Any aftermarket from Best Buy or equiv?
