Stock Speakers.

Does it still sound good to you, my ST arrives in a couple weeks and has the six speaker set up. I did not want the bigger screen. I have not heard the system yet and was wondering how to upgrade if I didn't like it?

I mean no offense nor do I wish to disappoint but they don't sound all that great with 14 speakers.

Agree. For a top of the line system they charge nicely for it is a disappointment. Sound quality is decent but volume very lacking IMO. Cranked at full and my wife doesn't even complain

Still sounds great to me! I also didn't want the vertical screen, and will not be upgrading my powerful base sound system (see FORD's description below).

Missing nothing that I personally wanted or cared about.

Are you running them off the factory amp?

Love the humor and speaker upgrade suggestion!

Yes. Going to add a amp around Dec.

Here the video I was following.

How do they sound with the stock amp?

What part of Houston do you live around? I'm in the Sugar Land area and work at 290 / 610.
Come hear it.

The stock amp is about 100 watts. The Focal speaker are underpower right now but sound so much better than the stock speaker.

Tomball near hooks airport, I don't expect miracles with the stock amp was just curious if it was a noticeable difference.

My friend has a Hangar at Hook Airport.

The Focal upgrade is worth it. You add two tweet to the rear door .

Missouri City here. I'm not an audiophile at all, but the other day in Sugar Land "Boyz in the Hood" by NWA came on. Passenger door speaker was clicking and all sorts of trash. Then somewhere I made the connection on the speaker magnets are likely the lightest (smallest) Ford thought they could get away with for EPA mileage standards. So, yeah, here we are. I like what @UNBROKEN said about deadening treatments. Without breaking the bank, think a compromised but 100x better than stock system would be a speaker swap and door deadening while I'm in there?

I’m also in Houston…we’ll have a meet sooner or later and I’ll be happy to show anyone what a full blown high end SQ build sounds like.

Did you install an amp for the speakers?

Looking for the T Harness to tap into the stock system.

I replaced everything except the head unit. This is a ~$20K build.

How did you measure/locate that info? Easily sounds more like a 300w-400w sound system.

CareerFiremanGuy said:

Don’t get hung up on power ratings. That’s only a very small piece of the puzzle.

I understand that, but that wasn't my question. My inquiry was centered on where he got that info.
