[QUOTE="goblues38, post: 1634989, member: 29724"] sigh...do your research....you can't just ad an amp and sub box to the Raptors that are 2018 and up with B&O systems. You have to replace everything. IF....you can do it yourself....it is around a $2,000 job (to start).........if you have to pay someone to do it....you are looking at $3,000 (to start). Prices go up depending on the cost and quality of your equipment. If you have zero experience....NO....you can't do it yourself. And if you don't do your research and try and do it on the cheap and not replacing everything, you are just pissing your money away and it will not be an improvement. Bottom line....you can't just add a sub to a B&O raptor. [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.fordraptorforum.com/threads/b-o-stereo-upgrade.74483/[/URL] The B&O systems uses the factory "sony" amp and hardware and applies a DSP to it.
