The RDS on our head units is cool, played with it last night. The head unit seems nice, I just wish the rest of the stereo was cool...

I have known this for quite awhile, but I have not said anything about it. The speakers are average quality 5x7's.

There are 4 of these. Two up front in each door, and two in the rear just below the seat belt straps. The speakers in the rear are muffled because of the plastic casing covering them. The enclosed casing causes a very "low" treble level, which sounds very bad.

On your stereo you will notice a balance control to move the sound from front to rear of the cab. If your like most people then you probably keep it balanced between front and rear. If this is the case then move the bar from the center 1/2 over towards the right. You will be amazed at how fast the sound quality improves.

The cab is small enough to be filled rather well by the sound of the front speakers. You will still have some sound coming from the rear speakers, but until the plastic casing is altered or removed you won't have quality sound with the balance set to the middle. It does sound decent though doing it the way I explained. Give it a try, and tell me what you think.
