OEM Audio + 5th Gen 4Runner audio system

[RonT4R]

For anyone else wondering about the possibility of a second sub for 4Runners without 3rd row, I asked and got this reply,

"There has been some internal consideration to produce a secondary subwoofer option for the listener that desires a bit more impact. Nothing official at this point. We are proud to deliver our signature sound with our configuration as is without the need of additional cost or components to our Listeners. That being said, YES!!! If a secondary sub option is introduced in the future we’ll ensure there is an upgrade pathway for existing owners."

I'm probably going to order the Reference 4Q package as-is. I'm not looking for big thumping bass anyway...just better sound quality and more amplification. If this wasn't mentioned already, the set-up is now $1599 on pre-order...I think I saw someone post the cost as $1699 elsewhere.

Just pre-ordered 450Q system without speakers, but including Sub-Woofer. I have allready installed new speakersin my '16 TEP. Went with Focal IS 690 componant set up for front doors and dash. I went with Morel Tempo Ultra 502's in rear doors and hatchback. The sound quality difference, with these upgrades were night and day!!!

I have spent the last 14 months trying to decide what to go with as far as amps and/or DSP to upgrade with. Had looked into Taco Tunes, as well as many other options. Was really looking for some sort of plug and play as not to be splicing into factory system.

After seeing this and reading many reviews by people who have bought this system for there Subaru's, Toyota's, and Scion's I pulled the trigger.

Got a ship date of January 1st and will update after install. :reddance:

UPDATE: Just received an E-Mail from OEM Audio.


Our company is undergoing unprecedented growth and has tested all our limits, especially our ability to deliver product on its estimated delivery date.

As a result, your order number 3007 placed on November 26th, 2017 is scheduled to be shipped out the week of January 22nd.

I personally apologize to you for any inconvenience and dissatisfaction this delay may cause.

I received the same email last night. I'm looking forward to the install and am a little disappointed in the delay, but I think it is great that they are crediting the shipping charge to compensate.

Well, hopefully no news is good news......................OEM said system was to ship this week, so I have my fingers crossed.

Deceiced to reach out to OEM after posting this and Alvin got right back to me with this..........
Hello Eric,

As of last Monday, Jan 22nd, we confirmed the shipment of the DSP amplifiers has departed the factory. We are awaiting for a shipping update from FedEx at this very moment. We are expecting delivery between today Wednesday, the 24th to Friday, the 26th.

Once they arrive, they will go through a thorough quality inspection which includes programming the amplifier to your preferred listening profile and testing for operation. Afterwards, the kit will be inspected for completion and readied for shipping. We will contact you then with a tracking number.

Please feel free to follow-up with us by Thursday, 25th.

Thank you again for your patience and understanding.

Kind Regards,

Alvin Lopez

So quick question for those that have this installed, are all of you still running the factory headunit?

Yup. Having come from vehicles with truly bad infotainment system, I think the factory Entune unit is fine.

I asked for an updated ETA on Friday and got a similar email however all he could say was that they are shipping out in order of the orders received. So that means nothing.... 1 week? 1 month? 3 months? I don't like being dragged along like that especially after dropping $1700

Second on keeping the factory. Installed a Pioneer DVD player in my last one ('04), and was happier then, but install kits and harness connections were a pain. Haven't wished I had something else in there yet, and very happy when a good bluetooth feed makes its way through the system. One complaint - GPS instructions are too dang loud!

Haha, I thought I had some sort of volume balance issue with my phone. Waze directions are SUPER loud. WHY ARE YOU SHOUTING AT ME, COMPUTER LADY??

Do these new amps have more power?

 

[hazards280]

I'm following this thread to stay in the loop with the supply of this system. I'm waiting to purchase, but I'm surely not going to wait 30-45 days for the $100 savings of the preorder. If it were $250 or something like that...maybe. But after I drop $1,500 on some audio, I want to hear it soon! hwell:

I'd be interested in seeing how this setup work for you with the Focal and OEM Audio +. I have the 690's up front and stockers in the rear.
