FOR "PURISTS" or anyone else who knows

My question is, in the pure, does the audio system "wiring" harness come with it or do you have to order a smart radio to get the wiring harness? Thanks

Wiring is all there for the standard radio and door speakers (not including the subwoofer.)

aftermarket radio for pure

i didn't care for the smart radio, so i ordered my smart sans radio. i was going to install an HD radio, but settled for a lesser AM/FM/CD unit. i got 50 watts per channel with my pioneer.

I also ordered my pure without radio, but want something even more basic.

Doesn't anyone sell a pre-amp/amp only unit with aux input? Or at most with a radio, but no need for CD, bluetooth, GPS, DVD and toaster oven and 100 more buttons and knobs. Most units UI looks like a bad Microsoft design with way too many controls and fiddly junk. They really stand out (in a bad way, to my eye) in the otherwise overall clean design esthetic of the smart. All I need is an input some basic EQ, balance and volume. Maybe a headphone output for extra credit. In my office I'm looking here at a 30+ year old Kenwood KA-3500 unit I bought in college that is along the lines of what I'm talking about, only for automotive application.

I'm enjoying the "silence" in the mean time.

That's all I would be looking for. I'm NOT an audiophile and don't need a great system, just something to listen to "talk" radio and occasionally some tunes. I have a passion on order that will be maxed out, but when I get it I will put in my reso for a "pure". Thanks to all to have answered and all that will, it's appreciated. This is a great board!
