Absolutely the best audio video I have ever seen. This is what pride is all about and what professionalism is all about. If you guys were close I would never do a sound system again myself. Absolutely professional. Great job.
Thanks very much for making such detailed videos. You go in-depth as to what each harness is for, what you need and don't need and why. Very helpful for me.

I am so glad you put up this video Help me so much to understand how to connect my system and also very much help with the Tweeter very much appreciated thank you so much
I'd love to see an install in the new 2024 Ford Raptor F150 with the 14 speaker B&O, which I just got. It seems more complicated and just looking for some good guidance on how to incorporate all the speakers with the PAC/AMP/DSP.
Im thinking about doing this with my 23 Ford explorer with the 12 speakers b&o but leaving the speakers since it's a lease I'll decide if I want to finance it out after the lease. The b&o is terrible for a $55,000 vehicle
Great Video, detailed explanation is fantastic. I plan on installing the AP4-FD31 on a 12 speaker B&O system, keeping factory speakers for now except the sub that I've already replaced. Question, will this Kenwood amp suffice pushing everything or should I go with two amps? Any advice appreciated. Thanks and keep up the great work.
Do you know if the Pac AP4 you linked will work with 2020 Ford Explorer Platinum with the B&O audio system? It doesn't list it in the compatible vehicles, but in the description it says it works with Ford models with the B&O systems.
There isn't any rolloff at all with the factory amp gone. The Pac module pulls the signal from the radio digitally, and puts out a super flat clean signal without rolloff, crossovers, time alignment, etc.
Thanks again for this video, its just what i needed for the install. If upgrading fronts and tweeters that come with crossover filters, do you wire the crossovers right off the radio T-harness or new tweeter amplifier output wires? what should you do with the abandoned factory tweeter wires? 2020 lariat w/ B&O
Depends on what speakers you are using for your install. Depends on how those crossovers need to be wired. We used alpine speakers with their own inline crossovers so those were installed at the speaker. If you have a speaker set with a shared crossover, and have the bypassed B&O system, since you have to run speaker wire anyways to the tweeters, you could put the tweeter crossovers in the rear by the amp rack. Crossovers just need to be between the amplifier and the speaker.
@@ProvoBeastAudioI came here to ask this same question. I am looking at focals which usually have one set of wires running into the crossover. And then the crossover splits the signal and has 2 sets of wires coming out of them, one to the woofer and one to the tweeter. How would this be wired in this situation? Could they just be wired off the tweeter wires and just leave the woofer portion not hooked up?
I have the exact same alpine speakers and pac amppro my question is how did you wire the front components to the amp ? , my amp is a 4 channel 250 X 4 and didn’t think bridging was good due to the 450 watts per channel for the front. Great video btw I’ve done it almost the exact same as this set up on my 21 lariat. Thanks
I have a lighting. Do you have to get behind the 15 inch screen to plug in T harness? Does this eliminate the bass roll off? Also is the install fully reversible?
If you have B&O, you will need to use the install parts shown in the video. If you don't have B&O, I'm literally uploading a video today of a non B&O trim amp and sub install video that allows you to use a T harness behind the radio. lightning or gas, it's the same process.
It is not a DSP at all. It gives clean flat signal because it eliminates the factory amplifier which included the factory EQ profile (DSP). So, you'll need a DSP to tune your sound.
@@jayshafer16nothing wrong with audio control. Im actually running the Marts Btx8 and love it. 4.5-5v out clean no clipping. For a little over 120 bucks
I have that also and thought about using it as well instead of the dq61, but I was thinking about the simplicity of just going back there and turning a knob or 2 and getting it right but opening an app sounds pretty easy as well.
Maybe you’ve been asked already there’s tons of comments I think it’s too much for me to look for it. How much did this cost the exact same set up that you just put in?
I understand if you don't want to publicly say this, for competition reasons (Even though quality will obviously suffer whoever undercuts you), but 'about' how much do you charge for this job? Basically Labor cost if all parts/accessories are included from a customer ofc.
Does the factory battery need to be upgraded if i use a bigger amp then what you have here? I wamt to use a 2000W amp and a separate 4 channel. Is the stock battery ok for that?
You get more cone surface area with two 10's vs four 6.5". If you go with four 8", you will get more output (box permitting). Also, forward firing vs downfiring are two different elements to also consider.
If you don't use the pac knob, you still need to plug it in, just do so, volume all the way up, and just stash it wherever you like. Still needs to be connected, just out of sight. Then use your own bass knob.
Parts used linked in the description of the video. Check it out!

Thank you finally someone installing the AmpPro AP4-FD31.
I know right been waiting months to see someone else do it before I go in and accidentally mess my wiring up 😅

I’m sure it would be the same for 2024 B&O unleashed

Can the center channel speaker be connected as well in this set up?
Great video!! Is the factory bass roll off corrected with the PAC?
There isn't any rolloff at all with the factory amp gone. The Pac module pulls the signal from the radio digitally, and puts out a super flat clean signal without rolloff, crossovers, time alignment, etc.

Door speakers are powered through the t harness, and we ran separate speaker runs for the tweeters

I would like to learn the install, have you done your install on the lightning yet? Thanks
@@LongNguyen-jo1pd yes I finished my install. I did a 4 channel and a 2 channel amp. I used the PAC module to replace the factory amp/DSP
Can I just add a sub like I don’t want to do all of this. Just add a 10-12 under the seat with a single channel amp
Yes, that video is in the description
Do you still have to use a DSP with pac ap4 or is it considered a DSP like zen a2b
It is not a DSP at all. It gives clean flat signal because it eliminates the factory amplifier which included the factory EQ profile (DSP). So, you'll need a DSP to tune your sound.
Thank you very much.... I'm really thinking about adding my audio control DQ61 after the Zen A2b
@@jayshafer16nothing wrong with audio control. Im actually running the Marts Btx8 and love it. 4.5-5v out clean no clipping. For a little over 120 bucks

Is the app for the Marts user friendly and adjusts pretty quickly or is it a huge delay when making changes through the app on the phone or tablet
Getting ready a similar install using the XR901-5 which has a bass knob.
Is it better to use the Kenwood knob or one provided with the AmpPro?
Maybe you’ve been asked already there’s tons of comments I think it’s too much for me to look for it. How much did this cost the exact same set up that you just put in?
That doesn’t change the ohms when you connect the tweeter with speaker on the same channel?
I understand if you don't want to publicly say this, for competition reasons (Even though quality will obviously suffer whoever undercuts you), but 'about' how much do you charge for this job? Basically Labor cost if all parts/accessories are included from a customer ofc.
Is the center channel powered from the radio? I see you didn't hook the center channel to your amp.
How many load resistors do I need for a 2018 F150 with neither the B&O or Sony system?
Do you have any videos for a Cadillac CTS
Would you need to upgrade the Alternator in the vehicle with this setup?
Nope, just a health battery and potentially a "big-3 upgrade" is all that is needed.
Does the factory battery need to be upgraded if i use a bigger amp then what you have here? I wamt to use a 2000W amp and a separate 4 channel. Is the stock battery ok for that?
Will this work for my 2018 ford focus b&o with navigation premium sound system Sony sync 3 ?
I want to do this same set up can you help me with mine? Same truck
Does combining the front speakers and tweeters together on the amp affect anything?
Well no as the speakers we used were a true component set. We didn’t mismatch coaxial speakers.
What you do think will sound better in a 2020 tundra Crewmax. Two ten inch shallow subs or 3-4 6.5in subs?
You get more cone surface area with two 10's vs four 6.5". If you go with four 8", you will get more output (box permitting). Also, forward firing vs downfiring are two different elements to also consider.
my 2019 Ford F-250 is amplified with the B&O system, will the FD31 kit work or no?
Any idea if I can use this to just add my subwoofers to my stock radio?
Absolutely, we have lots of videos on that, both with B&O, and non B&O audio systems on the channel.
The video description says it'll work on a 24 but the instructions say 22. Will this work on a 23?
Same exact set up on all three model years
If my sub amp has it's own bass knob can I use it or am I stuck with using the PAC module bass knob? Or both?
If you don't use the pac knob, you still need to plug it in, just do so, volume all the way up, and just stash it wherever you like. Still needs to be connected, just out of sight. Then use your own bass knob.
If I install aftermarket tweeters, do I need to run crossover with this set up?
All depends on the tweeters.
Gotcha. So on this system, there is an extra wire on each of the front speaker outputs which is run directly to the tweeters?
Can you use this if your are using more than one amp?
Absolutely. IF you want help with your build, send me a message on facebook or instagram.
Now do a 2020+ Explorer with B&O...please 😷
No idea how yall are getting through all that carpet
The 2024 look way different compared to the 23 and older. There is no amp behind the seat anymore. Now what?!
You are watching the wrong video. ruclips.net/video/TEoleBBD1eU/видео.htmlfeature=shared
I had that in a f150, very unimpressed, the solobaricL7T is lightyears better.
What’s the best way to mirror phone like RUclips Netflix from phone to car dash pioneer dmh-wt6800nex? Would really appreciate it
