What brand of speakers does RAM use?

RAM, whether you mean the memory module maker or the Ram pickup trucks, does not have a single speaker brand across the board. The answer depends on which RAM you mean. RAM memory modules do not come with embedded speakers, while Ram-branded trucks offer different audio systems depending on trim and year. Here is what is known as of 2025.


RAM as computer memory


RAM (random access memory) is a core component inside a computer. It does not pair with or specify a particular speaker brand. Audio quality in a PC or laptop is determined by the motherboard’s audio codec, any separate sound card, and the connected speakers or headphones. In short, RAM itself does not use a brand of speakers.


RAM trucks and their speaker brands


If you mean the Ram pickup trucks, the brand of speakers depends on the model year and trim level. The premium audio option in recent Ram trucks is Harman Kardon, offered on higher-trim models. In earlier FCA-era packages, Beats Audio appeared on some vehicles but is less common in Ram today. Always check the exact configuration for a given vehicle.


Premium vs. standard audio options


Here is a snapshot of how the speaker options have appeared across eras, noting that exact configurations vary by model year and regional market:



  • Harman Kardon Premium Audio on higher trims (e.g., top-end Ram 1500/2500/3500 configurations), typically featuring a multi-speaker setup and a high-power amplifier

  • Beats Audio on select FCA-era packages in some models in the early- to mid-2010s

  • Standard factory sound systems on mid-range and base trims, with speaker counts and brands varying by year and market


To verify, consult the vehicle’s window sticker, dealership brochure, or the official Ram website for the specific model and year you’re considering.


How to verify for a specific vehicle


The most reliable way to know which brand of speakers a exact RAM truck uses is to check the build sheet or window sticker. You can also:



  • Review the official Ram product pages for the corresponding year and trim

  • Ask a Ram dealer for the exact audio system specification of the specific model

  • Look at the owner's manual or the audio system brochure that accompanies the vehicle


In the end, the speaker brand is not fixed across all RAM trucks; Harman Kardon is the current premium option on many new models, while older packages included Beats Audio in some FCA-era models. Always confirm for the exact vehicle you’re interested in.


Summary


For clarity, RAM memory modules do not involve a speaker brand. For Ram pickup trucks, Harman Kardon Premium Audio is the common premium option on newer, higher-trim models, with Beats Audio appearing in some older FCA-era configurations. Check the specific model/year details with a dealer or manufacturer materials to be certain.
