About the Kicker VSS PowerStage System

Buck Pomerantz

Transform your Silverado or Sierra's factory sound system

You've got a great set of wheels, but something's missing: the sound of the GM factory radio leaves a lot to be desired. Low power, less-then-ideal speaker placement, and dialed-back bass all contribute to the unhappy situation. This VSS Powerstage system upgrade by Kicker will transform your Silverado or Sierra's stock radio and speakers into a high-fidelity sound system capable of giving you full, accurate, and richly-textured musical pleasure. And it does it without changing the look of your truck's interior or dash.

processor/amp with wiring

The digital processor/amp and the wiring are custom-fit for your vehicle.

It plugs into your factory wiring with no cutting

The heart of the system is the Powerstage processor/amp module that plugs in between your car's stock receiver and speakers with the help of a GM-specific wiring harness. Kicker's technicians measured the acoustics of the truck's interior, then developed a program to get the strongest and cleanest audio performance possible from the stock speakers. The Powerstage module breathes new life into your vehicle's factory system, automatically correcting for the limitations of the factory speakers, then adding plenty of power so the speakers can sound their best.

Of course, there's a subwoofer with it

It wouldn't be a sonic upgrade without a subwoofer to bring bass magic to the mix. Kicker includes a custom-fit, powered subwoofer that mounts under the right rear seat. A 200-watt amplifier provides the power you need to feel the bass from the 10" sub in the front seat.

Substage for 2014-up Silverado/Sierra

Substage™ for the Silverado/Sierra mounts under the rear seat.

Do it yourself and save

This VSS upgrade package comes with all the hardware and brackets you'll need, and all the wiring is pre-cut and terminated to help make the installation easier. Step-by-step, illustrated instructions make this sonic upgrade a fun and rewarding project.

Important Note: This upgrade package will only work with a 2014-16 Chevy Silverado or GMC Sierra Double Cab with the basic audio system. It will not work in the Classic body style, or a vehicle equipped with adjustable pedals, or in a Silverado/Sierra with the Bose® sound system.

Features

Vehicle Compatibility: The Kicker PSIEXT14 VSS PowerStage Multi-Channel Amplifier & Powered Subwoofer System has been designed to work in the following vehicles:

  • 2014-2018: Chevrolet Silverado 1500 Double Cab & GMC Sierra 1500 Double Cab, both with base radio.
  • 2015-2019: Chevrolet Silverado 2500/3500 Double Cab & GMC Sierra 2500/3500 Double Cab, both with base radio.

Compatibility Notes:

  • Factory base radio must be the 2-knob type.
  • Not compatible with Bose audio systems.
  • Not compatible with vehicle RPO code IOB (7" screen with no CD slot).
  • Not compatible with 2019 and newer 1500 trucks.

Multi-Channel Amplifier: The Kicker VSS PowerStage System includes a 4 x 50W amplifier designed specifically for powering the existing factory speakers and providing the optimum sound quality. The PowerStage amplifier features built-in, computer-optimized, 32-bit digital sound processing (DSP) that's tuned specifically for the vehicle and factory speakers. Mounting the amp is made easy with pre-attached brackets that allow it to be bolted underneath the driver's side dash, with no cutting or modifications. This also provides a more discreet look, with the amplifier tucked out of sight.

Subwoofer: The Kicker VSS PowerStage System includes a 10" 200W RMS subwoofer pre-mounted in a sealed enclosure that's molded to fit underneath the passenger-side rear seat. The subwoofer also features pre-attached brackets, allowing it to be mounted with no drilling or vehicle modifications.

Wiring: The PowerStage System includes pre-cut and terminated wire harnesses designed specifically to plug into the vehicle's factory wiring, making installation much faster and easier. Both amplifiers include power/ground harnesses, that get run to the battery and vehicle chassis, along with speaker-wire harnesses designed to be routed through a specific path in the vehicle.

Q
Could you order just the amplifier without the subwoofer? I would like my door speakers to be a little louder than stock. I've upgraded to the kicker 8" powered sub and it's does the job for added bass.

Thanks for your question. For information on selecting the best amp I would recommend reaching out to an Advisor by phone (1-800-324-9695) or online chat. They will be able to help determine the differences between the amp models and help you make the best choice for your system.

Q
If I install this and decide that the factory speaker still won't cut it, is the processor capable of being dialed into aftermarket (full range or component) speakers?

No you can't dial it in. It's an amp and should power any speak but it doesn't have any dialing ability.
richard  Dec 02, 2016

It's not adjustable if that's what you are asking.. the processors case is sealed like an engine computer. I like the system but by no means is it a mind blowing system with this upgrade. It is however much more robust with the upgrade.. comparable with a very good quality stock system..

Nope , there are no adjustments on the processor or the sub amp. All you can change is the tone levels from your head unit
