Any way to know how many Mudbath Pros are on the roads currently?
Anecdotally I would say somewhere between 60-80 have been delivered to dealers. Most of those have been delivered, but some have not. For what it's worth, I have not seen any other Pro's in the Seattle area (but I have seen 3 Lamborghini's, 2 Ferrari's, and 2 Aston Martin's this week).

Stereo was nice but i added the Amp 2 weeks ago and i will say it is absolutely worth it for the price. Took 15 min to install plug and play.

I’m doing the same tomorrow. No crackling? On another thread I said I was going to install and someone said theirs had cracking noises and they uninstalled it and returned. Hopefully a defect. Did you get a BeatSonic?

Also received an unexpected surprise. First Mudbath I’ve seen with this inlay. Was expecting black, but the spec sheet didn’t specify . Not yet sure how I feel about this.

I think the White TRD and the Red Pro looks fantastic on an Underground and Black. For the Mudbath I like the all black look. Either way....you have a TRD Pro and I'm jealous!

So, my understanding of the Beat Sonic is that it is just amplifying the signal in, put another way it is making the signal louder (aka noisier) before it hits the head unit. A poor solution, IMO.

If you are using your iPhone as an audio source, the easiest way to get more from your car stereo is to disable "Sound Check." It is crazy how many people I know that don't know this.

There are similar issues with Android phones, but there are too many variables. One fix that works is to simply turn up the volume on your phone, which will make your car audio louder.

If I was going to upgrade the stereo in my truck I would most likely start with the speakers. There have been a few threads in the Land Cruisers forums about JBL upgrades, I am curious if the systems between the two trucks are the same.

Well it boost the sound so 30% now sounds like what 50% to 60%was previously and it’s crystal clear. And it’s amazing how much it made the base come alive. For 300 bucks it’s worth it IMO if you’d like to have a little more sound and clarity at a lower power level. It’s my wife’s truck and she’s very pleased with the upgrade. Kiss simplicity

I have tried the Sound Check option and have it toggled off on my phone, the difference I'm sure is there but not truly noticeable to me. What really changed the most is the sound clarity from before amp install to after. The signal boost that an amp gives undoubtedly provides better clarity. And it gives you that clarity sooner instead of cranking so high to achieve it (of course there's a sweet spot because too high will distort)

All I can speak from is experience, it really isn't only just louder earlier. That clarity would be the most noticeable thing to me, and also what I'm after. But I don't doubt a whole speaker system upgrade would give you the best change, just not likely something I'll do. Lastly, I should say the JBLs give an overall similar experience without an amp to my 2016 4Runner SR5 with an amp so that's a good start.

LMAO you are way ahead of us. Great information!!!!
Thanks to your list I thought I scored one, then salesperson told me they were going to add 10-15k in dealer accessories before it was available. ? Kicker is it’s on their lot and not sold, but they won’t sell it as is.
