Say goodbye to hollow, lifeless, distorted sound in your Jeep. The lack of tweeters along with built-to-cost midrange drivers (even in the Alpine system) leaves much to be desired in the Front SoundStage of our Jeeps.

Presenting the world's only Jeep-specific 80mm 2-way component speaker system: 80mm aluminum midrange drivers featuring curvilinear cones + inverted santoprene surrounds for optimal acoustical dispersion and elegantly reimagined grilles with integrated 20mm ferrofluid-cooled silk dome tweeters introduce a refined aesthetic to the interior and a detailed nuance to the sound.

Your music comes to life atop the dash with a warm, expansive, balanced image that brings studio-quality fidelity to every adventure you embark upon. There's simply no easier or more effective way to transform the daily driving experience in your Jeep.

Scroll down to submerse yourself in technical knowledge - or if you're ready to rock just select your Jeep, factory audio system, accent tweeter ring color, hit the gold button, and prepare to hear your music again for the first time.

Before purchasing, you'll need to know which factory audio system your Jeep has. Here is how to tell.

ALL TOOLS INCLUDED • 10 MINUTE INSTALLATION

Music without tweeters is like running stock tires with a lift. The bean counters back in '14 decided you didn't need them, but we know otherwise. These warm, vibrant, 20mm silk tweeters were designed to pair harmoniously with our midrange drivers. The challenge was creating an elegant mounting solution. Enter our reimagined grilles. Drawing inspiration from the polished rings surrounding the gauge cluster, the tweeters are housed in machined 6061 aluminum casings that integrate seamlessly for a factory fit and finish.

WHY DON'T YOU OFFER A SPEAKER UPGRADE FOR THE SOUND BAR?

Given the movement of sound through the cabin (especially while driving) and that our ears are tuned to sounds in front us, we see little reason (which is, of course, debatable, but after 25 years of designing loudspeakers and audio systems of all types, we've developed a sense for what actually works for most people) in spending money on speakers that aren't effectively improving the sound in front of us (think of where a band is at a concert; in front of you!)
 
Sure, you can "hear" some additional sound coming from behind you, but despite extensive modeling and prototypes installed in the rear sound bar, it simply doesn't meaningfully improve the driver's or front passenger's listening experience. We could easily “design” rear speakers (hell, the midrange drivers are identical) and sell them as an upgrade, but we’re tired of companies always preaching “more, more, more” when it doesn’t truly benefit the customer.

GET THE BEST POSSIBLE LISTENING EXPERIENCE

For optimal sound quality in any vehicle, we want to connect directly to the source unit via either USB or USB-C. While Bluetooth streaming is convenient, the dynamism isn’t yet present in most modern vehicles. Yes, your music will still sound amazing with our upgrade, but if you’re after peak performance, you’ll want a direct physical connection to your device. Part of the upgrade process in every audio environment is setting the tone controls (bass, treble, any EQ or enhancement) to a flat level (in the middle of a visual representation is offered) and ensuring that any Loudness controls are turned OFF.
 
Beyond that, if you’re using your phone to stream music via the most popular platforms, you’ll want to go into the device’s main settings and turn any Equalization to OFF on both the native music player and then within the streaming platform you’re using to make sure no additional sonic manipulation is activated, like Bass Boost, etc. This is most important as you listen at higher volume levels, as distortion is the enemy of sound quality.

"Very happy with the improved sound! Installation was a breeze, and the quality of materials is top-notch. I'd recommend these speakers to anyone who enjoys crisp, clear sound with broad range." - Peter R.

Dash speakers, done right.

ALL TOOLS INCLUDED • 10 MINUTE INSTALL

Music without tweeters is like a lifted Jeep on stock tires. The bean counters back in '14 decided you didn't need them, but we know otherwise. These warm, vibrant, 20mm silk tweeters were designed to pair harmoniously with our midrange drivers. The challenge was creating an elegant mounting solution. Enter our reimagined grilles. Drawing inspiration from the polished rings surrounding the gauge cluster, the tweeters are housed in machined 6061 aluminum casings that integrate seamlessly for a factory fit and finish.

TECH SPECS

  • 80mm midrange driver
  • 20mm tweeter
  • 6db first order high pass filter on tweeter
  • Frequency Response 100Hz-22kHz
  • Nominal Impedance - 7 ohms
  • Power Handling - 35 watts per channel at 8 ohms

For those of you with aftermarket amplification - For optimal performance, you'll want to select the Alpine version of the speakers as there are no additional filters on the midrange driver itself. Here's how to tune your amplifier for optimal staging and acoustical performance.

  • Set the head unit volume to approximately 90% of it's output volume (numerically speaking, if your head unit max volume is at 50, turn the head unit volume to 45.)
  • Before tuning the amplifier, turn all output channels (gains) all the way down so you're able to dial in the front output of the Terra Acoustics components.
  • On your channels that power the Terra Acoustics components, set your amplifier's output filter to High Pass and adjust the frequency to approximately 180Hz.
  • Slowly increase the gain on the channels of the amplifier that power the Terra Acoustics components until you hear them playing as loud as you'll be listening to the music. KEEP YOUR EARS OPEN FOR DISTORTION. While these drivers are capable of very high outputs, since amplifier power and output varies you'll ultimately be responsible for determining the maximum capabilities of the system.
  • From there, blend in the remaining channels of the system to bring a balanced listening environment to the Jeep.
  • Allow 3 or so hours for the components to properly break in before putting the system through its paces. The glues and materials need to acclimate to the inevitable rock concert that will soon follow.

WHY NO SOUND BAR UPGRADE?

Given the movement of sound through the cabin (especially while driving) and that our ears are tuned to sounds in front us, we see little reason (which is, of course, debatable, but after 25 years of designing loudspeakers and audio systems of all types, we've developed a sense for what actually works for most people) in spending money on speakers that aren't effectively improving the sound in front of us (think of where a band is at a concert; in front of you!)

Sure, you can "hear" some additional sound coming from behind you, yet despite extensive modeling and prototypes installed in the rear sound bar it simply doesn't meaningfully improve the listening experience for the driver.

We could easily “design” rear speakers (hell, the midrange drivers are identical) and sell them as an upgrade, but we’re tired of companies always preaching “more, more, more” when it doesn’t truly benefit the customer.

THE BEST LISTENING EXPERIENCE

For optimal sound quality in any vehicle, we want to be directly connected to the source unit via either USB or USB-C. While Bluetooth streaming is convenient the dynamism simply isn’t there yet in most modern vehicles. Yes, your music will still sound amazing with our upgrade, but if you’re after peak performance you’ll want a direct physical connection to your device.

Part of the upgrade process in every audio environment is setting the tone controls (bass, treble, any sort of EQ or enhancement) to a flat level (in the middle if a visual representation is offered) and making sure that any Loudness controls are turned to OFF. Beyond that, if you’re using your phone to stream music via most of the popular platforms, you’ll want to go into the device’s main settings and turn any Equalization to OFF on both the native music player and then within the streaming platform you’re using to make sure no additional sonic manipulation is activated (bass boost, etc). This is most important as you listen at higher volume levels, as distortion is the enemy of sound quality.

REVIEWS

ALPINE VS. NON-ALPINE SYSTEMS

HOW CAN I TELL THE DIFFERENCE?

Not sure if your Wrangler or Gladiator has the Alpine upgrade from the factory? The easiest way to check is by identifying if a factory subwoofer is present. Use the image and description below that corresponds with your vehicle. If the factory subwoofer is present, order our Alpine upgrade. If no subwoofer, order the Standard.

WHY DOES IT MATTER?

Our Front Soundstage Upgrade kits are specifically tuned for maximum performance based on your Jeep's factory system.

2018+ WRANGLER (4-DOOR)

4-door Wranglers equipped with the Alpine System will have a subwoofer along the side wall in the rear storage area.

2018+ WRANGLER (2-DOOR)

2-door Wranglers equipped with the Alpine System will have an Alpine subwoofer in the floor of the rear storage area (trunk).

2020+ GLADIATOR

Gladiators equipped with the factory Alpine System will have an Alpine subwoofer behind the rear seat, as shown above.
