2015 f150 stereo upgrade non sony4/11/2024 ![]() Figure out a way to get my existing Infinity Kappy 6x8's in the rear and use my 4 channel to power all 4 speakers.then use my 2 channel for a sub when desired. Use 2 channel to power my front Focal Comps and bridge to power a sub. Like I mentioned above, I went with the yet to be shipped JL Audio RD400/4 I figure a couple options with this: Allowed me to spend a bit less on a 4 channel. One power wire and one ground wire.I wanted to go 5 channel, but I do have a 2-channel for when I want to add the sub from a previous build that I could use. Im a huge fan of 5 channel amps nowadays. Its extremely small but very powerful (75x5 + 600x1) but is small enough to fit under a seat or against the wall behind the back seat. Something like the JL Audio XD series is a very good choice. Id recommend a 5 channel amp for that setup. ![]() Ill probably do a speaker upgrade in the future but no hurry. I officially retired when I bought my beloved F150 because I aint touching that head unit and factory integration is a giant pain in the nuts and chock full of noise issues. LOL!

I believe I can hang with the best in tuning but Im a lousy craftsman with no patience. I did pretty well and had a blast but honestly its grown kinda beyond my modest install abilities.

Itll take a little tweaking but the way around that is to leave the Dynamat a little loose there so itll push in with that piece. One thing to note is that some door panels have styrofoam pieces that fit in that opening for impact absorption. If its on a rock solid mount that doesnt budge when its pounding away, youll get all the energy the speaker can muster firing into the cab which is what you want. ![]() The speaker will vibrate a lot and if its mounted to something that will shake and vibrate with it, itll lose a lot of energy and youll lose a lot of output. It seals off the backwave of the speaker vastly improving sound quality and also makes the door panel more rigid. Yeah throw away the moisture barrier and use Dynamat (or whatever youre using) to cover that opening. ![]()
