What no one talks about. Is the fact u have to spend another 179 on the sd card to use the navigation. And another 68 bucks on the xm module to use xm radio. And don’t show how to hook it up. It’s a great radio but these things should be made more clear to the customer.

I left the car audio installation biz in the '90's because vehicles were getting more complicated to install. Auto manufacturers made aftermarket installations much more difficult and factory units were getting better. These newer "black boxes" are awesome. A little expensive, but made wiring and integration much much easier. The industry did not even make factory radio harnesses when I started installing in the '80's. Lol.

Hey, Mark! Weighing my options while planning a build in my JLU. I have the factory 8.4 inch infotainment currently. Barring the larger size and added EQ options with the Stinger unit, are there any benefits this unit provides vs. using something like a PAC Amp Pro integrated with the factory unit? Additionally, are those added EQ and crossover benefits negated with the use of the PAC Amp Pro in conjunction with a DSP? It seems that unless you desire a larger/improved radio, the ease of install and adjustment/ EQ options associated with an Amp Pro and DSP combination largely outweigh the benefits of a head unit upgrade. Thanks in advance for any insight!

About time someone gave The Restyle a run for their money. Not exactly budget friendly but at least it costs 1/2 as much as Alpine's offering. Either or, imo it's just not worth spending that much money to upgrade the sound system of a vehicle which is arguably the worst vessel to try to build a system in. Wrangler has the noisiest cab of any vehicle in production...and that's with the hard top. Times that by 4 with a soft top. Zero factory sound dampening...literally sheet metal with a removable rug & logically so. It's an open air offroad vehicle by design. No sense in going nuts with a sub...bass would just get lost with the top down & doors off.

My troubling question is I have a PAC Audio amp pro GM 61, I believe, which ever one works for the Bose system and my question is I have to turn my front and rear amp down because I have a continuous shhhhhhhh sound like when your TV is turned all the way up and there’s nothing playing, that static sound that you get. Not a crackling sound but just that quiet sound. I have been told it’s called white noise. I know there is someone out there that can help me fix this problem. Pac audio told me to switch the little voltage button on the unit and it did drop the static sound a little bit but it is still there. I need to figure out the problem so that I can turn my amps up. There should be no sound coming out of those speakers till the music is turned on. Can someone please help me.
