B&O Subwoofer upgrade. What are my options?

[Graygoose2021]

No, on the road traveling for work.
I'm planning an entire audio build soon. Just need a few pieces to finish gathering parts.

Have you installed it? If so, what do you think? I think it sounds alright, but not great and I think it’s only because I don’t have enough control over it. I am replacing the rest of the speakers and installing an amp with DSP in the next couple of weeks.

Iceman, what amp did you use? Can you tell me what sub came in the box? The make and the size? I am looking at this one:

I sent them a message from their website about the sub make and size, but they sent me a link for the answer and it sent me to some other website called shopify to login? Not sure what happened there.

Iceman, what size amp did you add to yours? Wondering if the one with the amp is worth $1500, I would hate to purchase and then have just a mediocre upgrade in the bass. All I need is more bass and I think the system would sound great, but it's just soooo lacking in bass. I have the unleashed.

Anyone near Pensacola / Panama City area install one of these? I'll drive to hear it if someone has one.

Guys @SoundsGoodStereo are the best in the business and you can't go wrong with the system.

@SoundsGoodStereo is that a B&O module mounted on the board also? Just wondering if that’s something I’ll have to do with the 8 speaker b&o on my 2022

It's the factory amplifier. On our amplifier racks, we recommend mounting it on the back/rear of the amplifier rack. But if you have room on the front, that will work also.

Is the factory amp still needed with this kit then? Or is it used in addition to the one supplied?

You use your factory amplifier and mount it to our board/rack.

So it utilizes both the included Kicker KEY5001 amplifier and my factory B&O amplifier?

^ Yes.
The kicker Amp is ONLY for the subwoofer

Ah I see! And the factory amp stays connected to run the factory door speakers and such?

Exactly

Impatiently waiting for mine to show up! Hopefully I can figure out how to get it installed

Be sure to show us once it shows up!

Will do

After asking Don several questions at SG I ordered mine from them as well. Hoping it's not really 8-12 weeks for delivery, haha.

Bryan, how long have you been waiting? Look at their website under installation videos, they show another system being installed, it should answer most if not all of your questions on installing one of their systems.

 

[m_bt54]

Only 2 weeks now. I believe it said 8-10 weeks when I ordered (or something close to that).

I have watched some of the videos, and there is a good thread on someone else’s install on the other F150 forum so hopefully it won’t be too bad
