Now that we had a clean and powerful signal, we chose the JL Audio HD amplifiers for this Raptor. We don’t ever want that to happen! The Audio Control piece fixed this issue seamlessly, and gave us a phenomenal output signal to work with. This issue is called “bass roll-off.” As you turn the volume up on many OEM head units, the bass is cut back to protect the low quality factory speakers at higher output levels.
The AccuBass is designed to restore bass at higher volumes that is lost due to the equalization curves in the factory radio and/or amplifiers. To top it off, the LCQ1 also has Audio Control’s patent pending AccuBass technology built into it. It also incorporates an equalizer so we were able to fine tune the stereo with exceptional precision.

In order to effectively install our components using the factory radio we used an Audio Control LCQ1.
Integrating a complete stereo to an existing factory radio is becoming more and more prevalent now. The existing unit had everything the client wanted already, so rather than waste money on replacing it we used his budget in areas that would be more beneficial and give him the highest return on his investment. We already knew the sky was the limit with the stereo in this truck, even leaving the original radio in the dash. We did a nice stereo in a Platinum F150 not too long ago that also had the Sony package. Since it had the Sony package it had more output than the base model Ford stereo, but it still could not perform on a level that would be acceptable in this cool of a truck. Just like the rest of the Ford F150’s out there, the sound system in this Raptor is pretty poor. Needless to say, the Ford Raptor is a monster. They also added some extra strength components, such as unique cast aluminum control arms. Ford also added features to the Raptor like hill descent control, rugged skid plate protection, and an off-road-ready exterior package. It also has 11.2” front and 12.1” rear suspension travel, along with the rest of the suspension built to handle the most unforgiving terrain a truck can set its tires on. Rated at 411 horsepower and 434 lb-ft of torque, the big bore 6.2L V8 motor is just one aspect that we love. The Ford F150 Raptor is quite possibly the coolest truck to ever drive off the assembly line. This F150 was special… It was a Raptor! To say we were excited to work on this truck is an enormous understatement. We recently had a client bring us a 2013 F150 from Crofton, MD. Even purchasing the factory “upgraded” Sony stereo system does not get you very far.
They come to our facility and immediately tell us “I absolutely hate the sound of my stereo.” Hate is a strong word… But we can understand why, after hearing the atrocious sound quality of the Ford factory installed speakers.

At WSS Westminster Speed and Sound, the F150 sound system upgrade is a standard project.
