As many have mentioned the factory speakers can not handle bass duties, causing excessive rattle in the door speakers. Has anyone installed a sub in their 2019-20 G wagon can comment on the install and what they are running?

I had Sadistic Iron Works replace the factory sub with a JL set up. Its in the factory location and you can tell its even upgraded until you turn the audio on. Huge difference from factory sub.

Will, that sounds nice. Which sub? Any pics? Did they add/change amps? Who is the guy at Sadistic who could chat about the technicians? How long did they keep the G for the job? Very interested in this as well.

The bass is the least of the problems with factory setup. The mid/high range is horrible. A $25 Kia probably sounds better than the Burmeister system in the G Wagon. Since I spend most of my time listening to talk radio and streamed music while in the car, I haven’t bothered to yank it out, but on the occasions when I have tried to tune the system with uncompressed HD audio tracks, it is impossible to flatten frequencies above 250 HZ without distortion.

IMO adding a sub will be a waste if the mid range and tweeters aren’t addressed.
