I got the 8.1 JBL premium soundsystem that was an option at Toyota, for headunit I still use the EDM Toyota touch & go unit.

Works great, but I really want an Kenwood DNR935WBT...

OEM Audio+. Ordered it and had it installed at the dealer before I bought the car. So now it shares the same warranty as the car.

I think it's a perfect balance for this car. The bass isn't so loud but it's MUCH better over stock, and it looks completely stock in the trunk. It also doesn't add much weight.

I have the stock Monogram Bespoke audio system. If I didn't read forums on the internet, I wouldn't know that I didn't have the best system...

I kinda like seeing my texts pop up on the screen- too cool.

i have the oem audio+ too and its pretty decent. huge difference over the "regular" system though. Although i think the rear sub is pretty damn heavy, but i do love how it looks stock in the trunk.

Do remember that box has the amp (which I think is heavier than the sub) and sub so it will be a little heavy. There are much heavier options. But yeah, the stock look is great and out of the way so I can still use 98% of the trunk space.

Also, it's nice because it's really easy to take out if you want for track days. One bolt and one turn knob, then disconnect a couple things and you're good.

My FR-S didn't come with a radio since I wanted the base stereo and it was on backorder. Transplanted my Kenwood DDX719 and it's worked rather well.

the PWM110-JXWXv2 weighs something like 30 pounds, I'd be surprised if the OEM+ is much more than that. and the OEM+ looks nicer
