akirby Posted May 4, 2018 Share Posted May 4, 2018 Pretty much the same as the old Sony system it replaced. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ALLSTOCK Posted May 4, 2018 Author Share Posted May 4, 2018 yea, the price was exactly the same for the package upgrade. 895 or something like that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MKX1960 Posted May 4, 2018 Share Posted May 4, 2018 Pretty much the same as the old Sony system it replaced. The Shaker system is made by Visteon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ElRafa Posted June 18, 2018 Share Posted June 18, 2018 I hope it sounds damn good..hahah I ordered cuz I didn't want to mess with installing a system later. Rather spend the extra $$ on go fast goodies for my 06'. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob skully Posted June 23, 2018 Share Posted June 23, 2018 We ordered it also .... We bought a 2017 2500 RAM pickup and my Wife was bummed when I bought a CD and went to play it in the truck and it had no CD player. She was so happy when I told her the B&O sound system came with one in HER new car ;-) Rob .... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Before that is was standard on the 18's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akirby Posted June 23, 2018 Share Posted June 23, 2018 I can’t remember the last time I even touched a CD. Usb sticks are so much easier. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ice-capades Posted June 24, 2018 Share Posted June 24, 2018 The CD players are being phased out on all the vehicles and will be gone completely within the next couple of years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fordmantpw Posted June 25, 2018 Share Posted June 25, 2018 My wife went to put an audio book in our 2018 Focus loaner/rental. No CD player. She was a little bummed, but at least the book was a free loaner like the car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fuzzymoomoo Posted June 25, 2018 Share Posted June 25, 2018 (edited) My wife went to put an audio book in our 2018 Focus loaner/rental. No CD player. She was a little bummed, but at least the book was a free loaner like the car. they took it out of the Focus in its last year? Lol Just looked at the order guide.

racrguy Posted June 25, 2018 Share Posted June 25, 2018 I've ordered the B&O system in my 2019, I just hope it stacks up to the 485 watt Pioneer setup that came in my Ranger. That stereo has spoiled me pretty badly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
itguy09 Posted June 25, 2018 Share Posted June 25, 2018 I'm pretty happy with the upgraded Shaker in my 18. It's got great midrange and bass and complements the nice exhaust growl nicely! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That stereo has spoiled me pretty badly. It may not. It's roughly the same as the Sony system (may even use the same speakers) and while I thought it was perfectly adequate in my Fusion others don't like it. You can always swap out the speakers which should help and add a sub if really necessary. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure if that was any different than the Sony system in the rest of the Ford lineup. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From what I understand it was completely different and much better than the Sony system (at least in the bass dept). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can always swap out the speakers which should help and add a sub if really necessary. I figured that's what I'd have to do if I didn't like it, the 8" sub had me do a bit of a double take, but speakers and installation are relatively inexpensive, I'll just have to look at the amp situation in the car.

Well yeah, the subwoofer in the trunk of the Mustang is bigger than the one in the Focus or Fusion Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brucelinc Posted June 25, 2018 Share Posted June 25, 2018 The Shaker Pro system in my Mustang puts the base Revel system in my Lincoln to shame. The only thing that sounds better is the exhaust in "track" mode with the coyote screaming at 7500 RPM. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From what I understand on the Raptor forum, the B & O requires a special adapter that costs $850. So, far only one company makes them. https://navtv.com/products/NTV-KIT873/zen-a2b.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ElRafa Posted June 26, 2018 Share Posted June 26, 2018 I can’t remember the last time I even touched a CD. Usb sticks are so much easier. I hear ya. Only a couple times in past I used the player. I pretty much use phone or Pandora. Songs from my phone I try to make sure I have at least a 320kb mp3. Been thinking of going lossless to keep the quality though.
