Default Installed the Kicker VSS Power Stage On My 2015 F-150

So I installed the Kicker VSS Power Stage, part# PF150SC15, on my 2015 F150 Screw NON Sony system. I went ahead and put together a little video of the installation if anyone is interested. As far as how it sounds, I am 100% satisfied. I think it sounds great and and i am really impressed with what Kicker did with this system while retaining the stock speakers. It is a little pricy but it sounds great and I love the fact that I get to keep everything completely stock looking while still being able to fold up my rear seats and have full access to the back. Feel free to ask me any questions and I will answer what I can.

So, I know this is a hard to answer question, but if you replaced the factory speakers and amplified them (like a set of kappas) and added a single similar sized sub, how would you say it would compare to this upgrade, audio wise?
And I'm really wondering how the VSS soundstage system would react to aftermarket speakers.

Does your truck have navigation? I had this setup in my 14 and loved it. I am looking to put it in my 15, just not seeing much info on it yet.

That's a good question that can only be answered by someone who already went with the aftermarket sub, amp, and speakers. As far as the VSS sounding with aftermarket speakers, I had every intention to find out by installing a set of Kicker KS' but I was happy with the VSS set up alone so I decided to wait on the door speaker upgrade. Although, I might try a door speaker upgrade in the future when my checking account recovers.

No, my truck does not have navigation. I don't believe that navigation will make a difference. As long as you don't have the Sony system the you should be good to go.

Where did you buy it, and how much did it cost?

I bought it through Amazon but it shipped directly from Kicker. I only did it with Amazon because I had a bunch of gift cards I wanted to use. The cheapest place I have found is "Stage 3 Motorstports". I've only dealt with them a couple time but they were really helpful when I did. The are also active in the Forum. Here's the link,
