2023 Refresh Stereo Upgrade

Anyone try Pioneer TS-A709 for dash speakers? They look interesting.

Does your truck come with the Bose premium sound system? Mine sounded a little muddled when I first got it. Played around with the audio control a little and now it sounds very good. 

 

Assume this is the reason you're looking at dash speaker replacements?

I do have the Bose system. A friend said the tweeter on the Pioneer dash speakers don't play. He bought two sets. Returned both.

You can hear the highs? The tweeter works?

My apologies I did get the TS-A709 pioneers for dash speakers. They are 4 ohm.

Does the door chime and turn signals sound OK with the Pioneers?

Heard others complain about it with aftermarket speakers.

Yes if you do not use the inline crossover!

Yes makes the whole system better but you’ll want to ad an amp later.

I didn’t use the kenwoods kfc -x2c but I hear a lot of good reviews from guy with our trucks. I’m going to order them and do a comparison. The door speakers , kenwood KFC 6696s are awesome in the front doors lot of bass and very clear highs and mids

If you do use the crossover do you loose those sounds?

That's a great idea. I woukd think the Pioneer speakers woukd be more go higher and sound brighter.
