This means that 6-CDs full of MP3 files could provide more than 1200 songs or about 40 hours of continuous music.

Shaker 500 and Shaker 1000 systems augment the in-dash CD player of the base system with an in-dash 6-CD changer that has the capability to play discs burned with MP3 files.

The unit is mounted in the right side of the trunk of the car, freeing the rest of the trunk for cargo. Úsing computer aided design methods, Ford engineers were able to design a trunk mounted subwoofer enclosure that provides more bass but occupies significantly less trunk space. The Shaker 1000 adds two trunk mounted subwoofers and an additional 500 watts of amplifier to exclimate the thump of the door mounted subwoofers. The aptly named Shaker 500 has 500 watts of peak power available.įor the customer who just can't get enough sound, Ford offers the Shaker 1000. Premium models come standard with the Shaker 500 audio system, which has two door-mounted subwoofers with unique enclosed chambers and additional tweeter speakers. The base one includes a single in-dash CD player with 80 watts and four speakers. The audio system shuts off once a door is opened. It also allows the radio to continue playing for several minutes after the ignition key has been switched off and the key removed. The vehicle speed sensor matches the speed of the vehicle with the audio level, allowing the audio system to increase volume as the speed of the car increases and then decrease at slower speeds. This networked electrical system allows the audio system to communicate with other parts of the car, such as a vehicle speed sensor. This all-new solid structure combines with Mustang's new controlled area network electrical system to deliver unmatched audio performance and capability. The foundation for great sound begins with Mustang's new architecture and body structure that shields occupants from unwanted sounds. At cruising speed, that sound fades away to allow the audio system to fill the cabin. Like the new audio system, the all-American V-8 in Mustang is specifically engineered to reach the ear of the driver in just the right doses at the right times, such as under hard acceleration. Only a handful of factory audio systems are capable of this kind of output. The 2005 Mustang, another Detroit legend, will storm the scene this fall with one of the industry's most potent factory-installed audio system.Īs is the case with its 300 horsepower engine, the Mustang finds itself in rare company with its available 1000-watt audio system. NEW YORK, Ap- Detroit-area recording star Kid Rock recently stormed the stage in Ford's Mustang GT-R race car, filling a Manhattan dealership with the raw, soul-stirring sounds of the concept car's 440-horsepower engine and race-tuned exhaust.
