Exhaust and Sound System Question
Hey, Just 2 Quick Questions, Do mufflers help at all or just go and get a Cat-Back. 2) Best sound system for the rear sound bar, Dont really care about the front 2. I Just like my bass without getting a Sub. Also when you sit in the back seat with the volume around 60% I can barely hear the actual music because of poor bass quality or because the sound bar vibrates, they both sound the same and want to fix it. Is this for everyone on stock speakers. With that said, Best speakers for sound bar? With good bass? Im ordering a new pioneer headunit soon. Oh and one more sorry, i heard a aftermarket head unit alone imroves sound quality? Thanks, Rob

As far as the muffler question, what are you looking to get out of your jeep? Good mileage? Will you need to pass an emissions test?

I did only a magma flow exhaust and it made a big difference. Sounds good and felt a little more power.
Get a subwoofer and new speakers. Find out why ur sound bar is rattling.

An HU could help slightly, but honestly with 6.5" speakers you won't get much bass unless you get a midrange driver, then you have to get an amp, etc, etc. and it just becomes hectic.

Honestly, I got a dynamax superturbo muffler, new cat, and it came with a similar tip to the magnaflow you're looking at.. $75 to get a muffler to get legal was def worth it.
As I said, you won't get "bass" persay from 6.5" speakers.. I have MTX midrange drivers in mine, but I have an amp. Without an amp your sound really won't improve by much.

Do you have a link and what do you mean yours was illegal bccuz of no muffler? That sucks. How much would a Lower level-mid range amp cost about and would i be affective without a sub? I dont want to take up the space with it. Still with the 6.5" Speakers. Also when i get speakers, do i just get 6.5" ones or just for a cherokee?

X2! There are nice headunits out there, but an auxiliary amp worth its capacitors will easily outdrive it with richer and fuller sound.

We just came up with a new line of mids, right now we only have the prototypes
they come in 6.5s, 8s, and 10s
I just put some in my rear sound bar and doing my doors next.
These mids have GREAT midbass and GREAT vocals not the loud crappy audio sounding mids lol
im running mine off of H/U power as for the moment a couple of people wanted to hear what they sounded like without a amp....
Ill post up specs for them in 5 minutes... As soon as our new labels are in we can start shipping out our models....
