In fact, he left us a glowing review on Google. He was amazed at the accuracy and detail and was thoroughly impressed at how much of a difference the DSP made.

This process results in the sound from each driver arriving at the listening position simultaneously so that the music sounds like it’s coming from the windshield rather than the speakers. We finished the project by using our real-time audio analyzer and our tried-and-true calibration process to configure the signal delays and equalization settings for each speaker in the truck. This fiberglass enclosure is designed specifically for the Ford F-150 and features a single 13.5-inch 12TW5v2 subwoofer to deliver big bass without taking up valuable space in the vehicle. The last step in the installation process was to mount a JL Audio SB-F-150-SPRCRW/13TW5v2/BK Stealthbox under the rear seat. We used the crossover capabilities of the DSR1 to filter the signals going to each channel of the amp and consequently the speakers so they will only play the range of frequencies we want. However, it was different because we connected the woofers and the tweeters to individual channels on the amp rather than using the included passive crossover networks. This in and of itself doesn’t seem untraditional.

To connect these, you simply connect the wires from your radio to the back of the port and plug your device into the front. The kit is stunning with exact match factory controls, radio placement high in the dash, and a cool pocket with USB, HDMI and 3.5mm ports flush mounted into it.

In addition, you can operate your climate control using BOTH the controls in the dash kit and the on-screen climate control buttons. When you use it with a Kenwood or Alpine compatible radio you also get performance gauges, tire pressure monitoring, check and reset engine codes, and back up camera/visual parking assist.

When you use it with a Pioneer compatible radio ( ) you get the above plus the retention of Sync for calling and as an additional USB port/media player. When used with a non-iDatalink compatible radio, you cannot retain Sync, but you can retain steering wheel controls and back up camera (if camera image shown on 4.3 inch screen). This solution can be used with any 2DIN radio (and 1DIN too, but we don't provide any way to close up the other half of the hole). The dash kit is now in production and we expect to have it available for sale in late May.

The kit includes: Dash Bezel with HVAC Controls, Storage pocket with flush-mount ports, T-harness for radio/Maestro RR, Back-up Camera harness (for if the camera image is in the 4.3 inch screen), metal radio mounting brackets.
