Default Shaker 500 First Impressions

I picked up my GT last night and listened to the Shaker 500 for the first time. You know, it is not nearly as bad as I thought it would be but..... For a few more dollars, Ford could have saved me a lot of time and money.....

The subs, while muddy, do their thing but are are tiring after a while. The tweaters are fairly abrasive. Now I have to spend hundreds on JL's and amps.

Ya it sucks!

PLUS I've had the Head Unit replaced 4 yes 4 times... they have yet to play mp3 cd's.
ford is when it comes to the HU. I mean give me some credit on an aftermarket one or something. or I'll continue taking it in every week haha.

My Shaker 500 plays MP3 CDs happily? Only problem I've had so far is a little paint flaking off a button. Best factory sound system I've ever heard -- not aftermarket quality, but for OEM it's awesome.

Thats your choice, you could have a system that will sound days better and get louder for hundreds less than JL.
