I have the base system in my '13 GS - I am definitely opting for the ML system next time.

For me, the ML in my 18 does not impress me. I prefer the standard sound system in my 14 RX.

To my ears, the ML has maybe a half octave better bass extension and cleaner output, but the stock setup has more boost in the mid/bass ~60hz region that may give the illusion of stronger bass.
Please update how you did this.
Pics?
Yourself or shop?
Products?
Cost?
Thanks

Default Brand of standard base audio

Does anyone know the brand name of the standard audio system in the base model 4GS? I have a 2015 and am curious who makes it.

Thank you!

The standard audio amp is Pioneer, so I'm assuming the speakers are also Pioneer. The speakers don't have a brand name on them.
