I’m pretty damn impressed with my factory B&O system. Has anyone replaced the door speakers (front and rear) with something better than factory and noticed a difference doing just that alone?

a much bigger inpact and easier job would be to replace the factory amp ,the amp is the issue not the speakers

I don’t see it located behind my rear seat do you know where it is? B&O 14 speaker unleashed.

On the 2024 F-150, the amplifier is on the passenger side, behind the foam/carpet panel. Here in a few weeks, we are releasing out 2024+ products, so be on the lookout

Be careful what you wish for...

IDK what Ford does on the F150 B&O, but I understand at least some of the Mustangs get a ‘flat signal’. I will say that I can pick out mids, acoustic riffs, etc in several songs that the 2017 Sony system sounded like muddled noise. <-- the aftermarket speakers made it sound worse! basically they just more truly represented what was being sent to them, which was a terrible effort at mixing.

If the Rap / F150’s are still doing the jumbled mixing done one previous Jen Too, it will likely not sound better, or maybe marginally worse. The B&O puts a heavy reference on the front stage and the rears are probably only getting about 25% of the signal. Still, you’ll want to do new speakers regardless and if you’re not happy with the sound, the next step is the amp and signal processing.

That's toying around Smurf. I say do it all in one shot and be done with it...speakers, amp, sound treatment, etc. if he truly wants a better sound. LOL...buy once, cry once!
