On the amp, high level and low level inputs don't refer to the frequency range, they refer to either a full power input (high level) or a pre-amp input (low level). In your case (and my setup as well), if you are using the wires that feed the stock Ford OEM subwoofer as the inputs to the amp...

I set the balance/fader to the front left and played some test tones (on Spotify) to see what the door speaker would do. I put my ear to the door speaker, and could hear 6k, but nothing higher, although the pillar tweeter played them just fine. So, either the front door speaker is not being...

That would be an understatement. The stock sub was almost unnoticeable regardless of settings, music preferences, and human sacrifices. 😆

Re #2 - I don't have an answer for you, but I can say that on my 2021 PB, the tailgate controls seem to randomly not work for no reason. I've had it happen with the dash button, the button on the tailgate, and the keyfob. One of them will just do nothing about 10% of the time. My solution was to...

No worries. I guess to answer my root question (are the front doors fed a full-range signal, or just mid/low), I am going to download some test tones and play them, and hold my ear up to the front door speaker.

The rear speakers are not fed by the ACM according to the diagrams; they are fed by the DSP. At least this is the way I interpreted the diagram. There may be a harness that I can use with the ACM that allows that, but unsure. My logic was if I was able to tap the wires for the rears coming...

According to this, it shows the front door speakers (not pillar tweeters) are powered by the DSP behind the rear seat, which is where I tapped my current 2-channel amp to feed the rear door speakers. Am I missing something?

Here is what I'm leaning towards: https://www.crutchfield.com/p_136C2650/JL-Audio-C2650.html?tp=105 Since the front door speakers are fed by the DSP behind the rear seat, I will power them with a 4-channel JL Audio amp (replacing my current 2-channel amp that only feeds the back doors). So...

HS10 is fed from the stock sub output wires behind the rear seat. Works pretty well IMO. There is still the bass roll-off issue at high volume levels (seems like anything over 25), which is one of the reasons I am going with the amp to power the door speakers. In theory, I can get more volume...

To clarify, it is the 8 speaker B&O (non-unleashed). I have already replaced the factory sub with a HS10. I have already replaced the rear door speakers with JL Audio 2-way speakers, and powering them with a 2 channel JL audio amp. I have not made any audio related changes to Forscan...

I am considering replacing the front door speakers on my B&O non-unleashed setup. From my research, it appears those speakers are NOT full-range, as I'm guessing Ford is sending the highs to the A-pillar tweeters, and the mids/lows to the speakers in the door. The question: If I were to...

Rear chime was only issue, and I solved it with a resistor.

If you are going to get the extended warranty, then definitely add the LED package. My passenger side DRL failed on my 2021 after the initial warranty was up, and Ford covered the replacement of the entire assembly (the only way to fix it) for no charge because I had the LED add-on. I have no...

Vertical passenger side DRL bit the dust. Had it replaced under extended warranty with the LED add-on (thankfully). Anyone know if the replacement headlight assembly is an upgraded part to prevent DRL burnout in the future, or is Ford just slapping the same old part on there so I have another...
