Default Radio sounds like **** but the CD/Bluetooth sounds fine?

Hi all. As stated, the radio in my 2013 GT sounds terrible. It's tinny and only sounds like it's coming from the front speakers. When I play something through Bluetooth it sounds fine. I've checked the settings and bass/treble/balance/fade are all centered.

Any thoughts?

Do you have the base or premium GT? My 14 is the base model and it doesn't sound great, but my 13 was a premium and had the Shaker system and sounded good

Gotta go with base here. No nav or touchscreen so I would say base.

Hard to say without being there, but the first thing I would check is the antenna.
