2024 Ford Ranger (Raptor) #1 required modification!!! SUBWOOFER UPGRADE!!! B&O sub is tiny!

Love your work 😊 We got a different sub in ours 🤔 It measures 220mm x 150mm. Whole different set up. Don’t know how to send a pic but yeah! Interesting. Looking forward to more vids. U crazy Bro 👍🏼

I’m boutta drive back home and same as last time switch with girlfriend

After doing this, do you think the 10 would have fit or are the dimensions too different? I was considering the 10 last week. My RR arrived in Atlanta (1.5 hours away) 12 days ago, and isn't scheduled to be delivered until the 25th...

These videos are awesome!! Keep up the great information. Definitely going to do this when I get mine hopefully this month.(EDIT: Just watched the whole thing and too involved for me lol. Wish there was a plug-n-play solution). Any chance you can take apart the rear view mirror assembly for the potential for a mirror tap and radar detector?

What kind music h listen to mostly.whats ur favorite artists ect

Awesome idea! Great video! I may have to do this to mine. I appreciate all your input, hard work and determination.

Sounds like you know what you're talking about when it comes to sound, sound quality dosnt really bother me too much these days as I listen to podcasts, or the exhaust ;)

That thing hardly is a subwoofer.. guess it's better than nothing though. Although, I like to listen to the engine sounds anyway.

Definitely a cool upgrade but I’m pretty happy so far with the stock speakers maybe in the summer with the windows down I’d want something louder? But nice job!

Would make it make the sound a bit louder cause im really satisfied but when I roll the windows down and driving 120 - 140 kph I just needed to be tiny bit louder so does the new subwoofer make it a bit louder

Are you going to put some sound deading insulation under the headliner? Im considering it when my truck shows up in June. 5/6 build date i cant wait!

Did you have any issue with noise cancellation causing the sub to go crazy for no reason? And I'm surprised you have that sub enclosed like that in Australia we get the 6x9 version of the sub

Sort of a weird use case, but did you consider using one of the aux switches? "You guys ready for some bass? ... *Flip* BOOM 😂

Does the mirror vibrate/move with this Kicker upgrade?

Can you / Did you get actual measurements on the B&O subwoofer size? thought it'd be a 6 1/2 of 6/3/4 given you comments. Any measurements on the OEM box or speaker mounting depth?

So did you re-install / re-connect the factory amplifier such that it's installed, just not powering anything? I'll also be interesting to see how you secure the sub. I'm looking at the 10", given that it's only 1/2" wider and looks like it would fit.

This is very interesting, and I’m really surprised at the factory fitted sub being woefully under par - you would think the audio boffins at Ford would’ve done some research into the best set up with BNO!!??

What did you end up doing to secure the sub behind the seat ?

Did you ever make a video of cleaning, painting, etc., the driveshaft rust?

I kicker sub was $300?

My raptor on the way! Thank you. Do you think the Kicker 10” will fit????😮

I really liked the tutorial of your videos if it brings a better sound it's great what I regret is that you put everything in fast speed we didn't really see the connections and corrections that you made on the wiring

So how did you end up mounting the new sub behind the seat? I must've missed that part?

In Australia we don't even get the ported enclosure! Just the sub bolted to the back wall. And we get no cover over the amp.

Thank you for the video, it was a great help! Mainly it helped to know the old sub wouldn’t just come right out. So instead of jacking with the amp and seat, I just used the SawsAll to cut the damn thing .. came right out! 😂 Also, I used a heavy wire to guide the power wire through the firewall. So the whole install took about 2hrs thanks to your tips! 👍🏻

😂😂😂😂

Thanks for all the Ranger Raptor content you've been putting out.

I have a question regarding the factory amp.. I've read online that it's a 650w amp but I'm not quite sure. I'm looking for a stealth enclosure sub like the kicker hideaway but I'm looking at alternative companies with a 10" sub. If you were to guess, what's the safe max RMS wattage and peak wattage sub I should be shopping for if I want to only use the factory amp?

Could you please measure how deep the factory sub box is and measure the factory speaker depth? Thank you!

getting the 10in installed next week.

Welcome to car audio. Been doing my own installs for a while now. I’m just now at the point where I installed two 15 inch subs, two amps doing 12k watts. I have a 2020 escape with the b/o system as well. I have skar speakers in the doors much better sound. I have high output alternator, multiple 2/0 wiring, and lithium batteries.

If you like good high quality sound, you’ll never get it from any stock sound system, with just a subwoofer it still sound like garbage.

Is there enough room back there to fit Kickers 10” sub instead of the 8” version vertically?

Just got a 21' ranger with the "upgraded sound". I'm an audiophile and can tell you my 2005 Xterra has a better sound system. Looking forward to making this upgrade soon.

Hats off to you man! Just installed Kickers 10" Sub. Only took less than an hour. Thanks to your tips and tricks, they help me a lot. Thanks again...

Question: You install the 8" box, Would the 10" version fit. Looks to be just a touch bigger.

Do you have the mix and match wiring that you did between the connector taken out from the oem subwoofer and the aftermarket one ?

Does the kicker still allow you to adjust bass levels etc from the screen? Does it fully integrate ?

I care for you

Hey, me again ! You wouldn't believe it, went out today to do this and here (in Australia) our sub looks NOTHING like yours in the US. We don't have an enclosure, we have a 6x9 with a slightly deeper magnet housing. 🙄 Thinking of daisy chaining the 6x9 to the kicker? Thoughts? Cheers

I want to do this, but I wonder if it would be easier to wire the power wire to one of the Aux switches? What do you think????

Hey, do not forget to hook up that sensor plug thing.

great content. keep up the good work

I'm looking at a Ranger lariat with the b&o system. I've always had aftermarket systems in my vehicles. Usually 2 12's but as I get older I don't need all that bass. In my f150 I have aftermarket speakers, a 240w amp pushing the highs and a self powered 10" Rockford sub. It's good enough for me. This factory sub in the b&o is a laughable. Thanks for the video.

Probably could have fit a true shallow mount eight or 10 in in a box behind the rear seat with all that room as well as a mono amp to power it.

did you remember to plug that plug back in? dont forget..

Just did this, video was a huge help, but for anyone else who is about to, step one should be unbolt the 4 seat bolts and the seat can slide forward and you will have the sub out in 10 minutes or less

Great video. Before changing mine, in my case, I’ll just be happy setting up properly. From the app the settings are too limited. There’s a way to set up more variables from the amplifier? Tips for that. I have all B&O stock yet. Thanks !

Just curious. Can’t you add a line driver and a better sub amplifier?

That magnet seems like it would rock with some more power.

The one thing I feel like I'm missing from the video is how to wire up the signal wire. I ended up getting the 10" QBUS10P 500W Peak (200W) RMS 10" Ported. Was there an easy way to tell which wires were positive and negative going to the speaker? Did you end up leaving it loose behind the seat, or did you "mount" it. Not much to mount to back there.

What wires did you use off the oem amp?
