I replaced the stock lights with TruckLite LED headlights about 3 weeks ago.

They are much stronger than the stock, yet have a straight horizontal sharp cutoff at the top, so they don't disturb on-coming traffic. No one flashed at me.
They spread much more to either side, an advantage both on & off road.

The stock headlights didn't have an even spread, there were darker and brighter areas.
The TruckLight are no different in this respect.
From what I've seen on another Jeep, the Speaker, too, doesn't have a perfectly even light spread.

Each TruckLite headlamp creates a little 'X' near the front, which doesn't bother me at all.
I had the chance to see how they do when offroading at night, and I liked what I saw.
Light color is daylight white – not yellowish and not bluish – just right.

I don't know why Speaker cost more, and I'm not sure that the price difference reflects better quality, fully or even partly.
TruckLite make LED headlights that meet MIL specs, so they can't be "that bad".

I think the thing that people don't like about the Truck Lite's is the flicker. So if you can't stand the flicker then you shell out for the JW's.

Any LED light may flicker on a Jeep, it's the Jeep's computer and the signals running along the Jeep's wiring system, and not the light itself.

If the headlights flicker, there's a simple wire harness that eliminates it.

My TruckLite headlamps do not flicker at all.
