the basic 4 channel kicker key is only a bit cheaper than the JBL DSP, which has its drawbacks too, but its more powerful and configurable from an eq perspective. if you are looking used, 6 and 8 channel Arc and helix stuff exists used in decent condition around 400ish and up which are pretty...

there is a lot of info swirling around in here, and im not really sure where exactly everyone is in their planning process but i would offer another word of caution on the Kicker Key, while it does act as a step up from a typical "add an amp" setup, its fairly severely compromised and often ends...

the tweeters have a capacitor so its not a 2ohm load. it does sound like an over current issue on the headunit. you can ohm out the OEM speaker to see what its expecting. and you could use math to see how much of an LPad you would need on the speaker to keep it from clipping.

there is a TSB on the subwoofers that are "bottoming out", should be able to get a replacement from the dealer no problem.

the first image is of a neodymium speaker, neodymium's magnetic strength is far greater than ferrites. simply comparing the space something takes up is not sufficient.

what are you calling the "mids" any dash speakers will likely be on the smaller side and i would not expect them to be able to play much if anything below 200ish Hz The lower kick panel speakers should be larger speakers and assuming they are designed for use in the small airspace of the cowl...

hardtop vs softop will make a significant difference. if you feel like a little bit of testing you can do a few things 1. measure the response of the system in your drivers seat for both with a measurement microphone 2. measure the response of the subwoofer with the mic right up next to the...

in the B&o system you cant make the rear pods full range this kit also looks to put coax speaker in the kick panels. which is frankly just dumb. red flag to me.

if you are finding its track dependent you may be able to look into your media player settings. on Spotify for example, there is a loudness normalization setting that will make some tracks quieter in order for them all to be about the same volume. they ALSO have a version of the loudness...

not sure, but my understanding was there was no sensor for top up or down. the hard top also has like 20 panel combinations you could do. i saw no way for my friends to sense hard top "on" or "off"

mustang has a sensor for top up or down. you can measure the EQ change with a microphone.

there is no sensor for the top on or off so there is no way for the DSP to change EQs based on top up of down AFAIK

The call-out numbers are not the whole part number. You need to look at the full part number which is entirely different, including the sizes of basically everything per the other poster

im not seeing any shared parts in my cursory glance at fordparts.com but its obviously much better if you have an exactVIN

mass is more or less meaningless without controlling for other variables. a speakers "strength" can come from a variety of sources. the most important characteristics are not things you can easily tell from looking at a speaker. (output, distortion, linearity) in regards to the speakers in the...
