I have a 2010 FFH with Sony 12 speaker audio....This has to be one of the greatest disappointments in the vehicle. The sound is under powered, seems like it has a midrange audio only. When the auto sound control is set to on the sound quality sounds better when your up to speed, greater frequency and fuller sound still not great but when you idle or slow you go back into a can. If you turn it off your back to sounding like your in a can. I have the nav unit as well but my plan is to go to a high quality auto sound shop and rip the whole mess out and somehow still use the nav head unit if possible. Anyway if anyone knows about something officially wrong with this 12 speaker sony, like Ford is replacing, it would be helpful otherwise that thing has to go.

I really like the car, it is fun to drive. One thing I am concerned with is the quality of the audio system. The sound is very dull. Seems like there are no highs or quality base. Sounds like it is in a can. I have to turn the volume up quite a bit to hear any decent midrange or understand words people are singing. Sirius radio seems to be even worse. I would have expected a greater quality sound from all the speakers and claimed power. Is there something I am missing or doing wrong? Has anyone changed out the stock speakers and put in something better?
