Kicker Stereo Upgrade From Shelby

Kicker Performance Audio system upgrades are now available for most ’05-‘09 Mustangs through Shelby Performance Parts dealers nationwide.

 


Kicker

The Kicker systems are Carroll Shelby-certified all the way – extremely high performance! These true plug-and-play upgrades are significantly louder and clearer than stock Mustang systems, dramatically improving low-, mid-, and high-frequency response.

The Kicker upgrades also reduce overall vehicle weight. The subwoofer is half the size of a Mustang’s stock subwoofer, reducing weight by 60 percent increasing cargo space by fitting snugly against the inner trunk wall.

“Every hot rodder knows that the best way to improve a car’s performance is by shedding weight,” said Carroll Shelby. “By working with Kicker on this sound system, we found a way to do that without sacrificing the quality of the sound that enthusiasts expect today. It’s a winner on every level.”

The base system upgrade consists of a powered subwoofer in a vehicle-specific enclosure pushed by a 200-watt (RMS) amplifier, front and rear two-way 6 x 8 speakers (long-throw, poly-cone midranges with 1-inch, titanium-dome tweeters), and a 4-channel amplifier (46 x 4 watts RMS) with advanced 32-bit Digital Signal Processing (DSP) that uses optimized Shelby/Kicker Performance software specifically for the vehicle. DSP ultimately controls the sound, much like the engine controller for the motor. All pieces include mounting brackets, plug-and-play harnesses, and hardware.

The premium upgrade contains all base system components, plus two additional 8-inch woofers (long-throw, poly-cone) with adapter rings, grilles, and hardware.

Upgrades pertain to all ’05-’09 Mustang coupes, with inclusion of ’10 models coming soon. Shelby GT and GT500 owners can contact Shelby Automobiles about specific Kicker upgrades and to have them included as part of the car’s official registry.
