Audio Systems for 2015

It's the little bubble at the back of the roof.

That's the satellite antenna, the radio antenna is in the back window except on the conv it's on the right quarter.

Interesting that the door speakers will no longer be subwoofers. Not that the door subs in the current car are all that great, but they are hardly the weak link in the current system. My guess is that the 9 speaker cars will be desperately crying out for a trunk-mounted sub. Also, hopefully the speakers can easily be swapped out for aftermarket, and that access to the rear speakers in the coupes will be easier than is currently the case.

My thoughts exactly...really disappointed that the only way to get a sub is to spend 2 grand (!!) on the memory seat/BLIS package. Forgive me for saying so but a single memory seat/mirrors and blind spot indicators on a car with perfectly good spotter mirrors is just a rip. Worse is that we are already paying a big premium for the premium trim, which used to have dual door subs. Now you have to throw more money out for overkill. Aftermarket is the way to go IMO, just a simple enclosure with a modest sub

Is this old data or a typo? I thought I had read that there was a new version of the AppLink software that was going to be included on the premium sound system version of the Mustang MFT?

Hard to believe after all these years they may STILL not have AppLink on the MFT system. So the upgraded system may actually be a downgrade in features.

Ford is ditching the microsoft based system altogether and going for one that is QNX based, which is a Blackberry subsidiary already powering BMW, VW, GM, Jag, LR, Audi, and even Chrysler. Its possible that they decided not to spend all the development money on Applink on MFT if they are going to start from scratch soon.

According to this article on the new Edge, the new software SHOULD be able to be retrofitted on older MFT's, however the article only cites this ability with the new Edge and it is quite possible the Edge may have updated hardware

It would be very helpful for a Ford rep to weigh in on this matter so we can confirm if MFT is still worth buying?

Yep my wife's Edge has it

What is the capacity? How many songs can it hold?

just buy a flash drive.

 

[Bahndvr]

Sure, but it's nice having +2000 songs on hand and add a flash drive if you want.

Sorry I guess they changed it and they no longer use a HDD? But from a little research it seems you can still play from a USB stick/SD Card or USB HDD formatted in Fat32

 

[Bahndvr]

No problem thanks Brent302

Anyone wondering about a HDD/Storage solution I did a little write up on something I found.
