Audiophile system - option code 581

Where is the subwoofer positioned in the cab with the Audiophile system? I'm curious as to where they can hide this given the multiple interior configurations: front captain's chairs with center console vs. front bench, and Regular/Super/Crew configs. How many speakers are included total? I'm full of questions today.

How much extra do they charge for that "Audiophile" system?

I'll take my truck with a straight AM/FM stereo and have it yanked outta there within a few days of owning it to replace it with my OWN "audiophile" system.

it looks like its a plastic subwoofer box under the 60% portion of the 60/40 back seat (supercab and supercrew)

Thats just from looking in the service manual pictures

thanks, great info. I wonder if it is the same 8" subwoofer used in other Audiophile systems, like with the Explorer.

With rear captain's chairs it must be positioned under one or the other.

I have added high $$ custom systems to past vehicles but want to stay stock with a new '04. Something is very appealing to me right now about being totally stock, under warranty, and financing all options & accessories at the time of purchase. Top end factory audio systems have made enough progress in the last five years that they meet my requirements.

Question audiophile in a regular cab?

how about a regular cab with an audiophile sound system? is it available or not, like the center shifter.

yes, but the sub box is shaped different.

i would post the diagrams of the boxes, but ford has tightened up on us quite a bit about copying any of our online info for the public to see
