I have a 2022 Lariat Lux don't have that on the sound settings. Can't find it anywhere.
I have a 23 Hybrid XL so base radio. So I,

Turn on radio
Select settings on the bottom right of the radio screen
Select sound settings
The options for base/treble, balance/fade, etc. come up. One of those options is for all seats or drivers.
I like the all seats better.

Yep. If you have the b&o system you have stereo or surround and you should always use stereo.

Base stereo is the one that has driver focus or all speakers, and driver is better for most systems.

I've not had any issues with my Puzu DSP Amp. Puzu has a website at puzuaudio.com.

Down at the bottom of the home page are two links. The first one is After service. The other that I noticed is Contact Us.

I got the idea that Puzu is very willing to provide installation help, troubleshooting service and dealing with warranty issues.

I hope this helps.
I plugged it in today to test and what a difference with my Infinity speakers. Im going to install it Sunday. May I ask where you ran the wire through? I was hoping to not have to pull out the Ford unit and all that but I didn’t see anywhere big enough to fish the wire harness through to behind the glove box otherwise but maybe I missed something.

I put my Puzu DSP Amp underneath the driver's seat so I fished the DSP wiring w/connector down the side (inside) of the front part of the center console, then pulled out the console bottom enough to push the wiring underneath. I exited the center console near the front of the drivers seat. Pleny of lead for that.

To get to the glove compartment, you can snake the DSP lead down the right side of the center console (again inside). Once you get some of the lead out near the fuse box, you can pull as much as you need and also up so you can get to the glove box.

I've ran several things down both sides of the center console below the ACM. Yeah it's tight, but there is room.

Glad you liked the sound.

Thank you very much. I like that idea better and will do the same.

I put a Puzu in my little truck a few weeks ago. Focals in the front, kicker 4" in the rear. For what it costs i decided it was worth trying.

Downloading the phone app is a waste of time and frustrating, it only does a few things and none of them well. The pc based app is great, but you will be spending about an hour to get it dialed in where you want initially. After driving it a few days you'll probably spend another hour tweaking it again.

If you only listen to one type of music it's easy. If you go from Steely Dan to Wu-Tang to Pantera you're going to have to slightly compromise certain elements to make all of them sound good at half to full volume. But, it's 500% better than stock.

Where is that adjustment screen.
I think this setting is only the non-sync ACMs that are on the XL & XLT, and Lariats without the B&O. I do know for sure this setting is on the XL. So, here goes.

Go to Settings on the ACM Display (Page 376 of the OM doesn't provide much description)
Push Sound Settings
There are four settings here:
1. Treble/Midrange/Bass settings​
2. Balance/Fade settings​
3. Speed Compensation​
4. Occupancy Mode:​
You can optimize the sound for different seating​
positions by choosing "All Seats" or "Driver's Seat"​

This is the Sync 3 equipped ACM settings (Page 385 of the OM)
Occupancy Mode (If Equipped)
1. Access the vehicle drawer on the touchscreen.​
2. Press SETTINGS.​
3. Press Sound.​
4. Press Occupancy Mode.​
5. Press a setting. (either Driver's seat or All seats)​

Hope this helps. :cool:

I don't have experience with the Lariat Lux sound system but this is according to the manual.

Sync 3 equipped ACM settings (Page 385 of the OM)
Occupancy Mode (If Equipped)
1. Access the vehicle drawer on the touchscreen.
2. Press SETTINGS.
3. Press Sound.
4. Press Occupancy Mode.
5. Press a setting. (either Driver's seat or All seats).

Again, I don't have experience with anything on the Lariat Lux.

The phone app is definitely not great. I couldn’t get the pc app to work but that might be a surface go problem. I was able to half the gain and cut off frequencies below 30hz on the fronts and below 150hz on the rear which probably already have a crossover anyway which will cut some distortion. My hearing isn’t great anyway. I put infinity coaxial in the front and left the rear’s stock. No matter what the system just requires a powered sub or better to get balance for any music but I agree the puzu alone even without any adjustments is 500% better and you get the subwoofer output for later which is much easier than splicing or having to use one with a plug and play harness
