I am looking for some advice as I have been out of the aftermarket audio scene for many, many years.
I have a 2013 F150 Screw with the wonderful Sony system. I have to keep my e pick HU as it has nav, heated and cooler seat contols, etc.
Thus far I have replaced all the stock speakers with Rockford Fosgate Punch series. I am now moving on to the sub and amp. Here is where I need a little help.
I have already ordered a Audiocontrol LC2i and will remove the stock sub and replace it with a RF 10" shallow mount Punch. I will build my own box rather than buying a generic one.
I originally was going to purchase a mono block and call it good enough. However, I am seriously leaning towards a 5 channel amp to power everything. How much of a chore is that going to be seeing that my stock system is already powered by a factory amp? Is it really worth the $$$ and hassle? I will be doing everything myself. Please keep in mind I am not wanting advice on brands, speaker placement, etc. I am more concerned about (1) $$$ vs. reward, (2) can it be done by someone very inexperienced, (3) would like to be able to remove and return to stock with as little problem as possible.
Thanks for the help and advice...
