:L It's OK, you're welcome here with the rest of us gearheads.
Whatever replacement unit you choose will need an adapter
(I forget what it's called :eyerole) to work with your Bose speakers. I've got one laying around somewhere unused; I replaced the factory unit when the tape player started acting-up with a Pioneer unit and kept the Bose speakers, and I needed that adapter at the time.
Well, it sounded ok, and I knew we could do better, but I wasn't looking to blow out anybody's eardrums or anything; I just wanted enough power to be able to accomodate my side exhaust, and running down the highway with the top off.
Now don't get me wrong, I love my Bose system at home, and Bose does wonderful things for outdoor installations too (and an added plus is the fact that it is an
American company - "The Mountain", what an address!) :L
However, I decided to replace the Bose speakers in my Vette with a matching system for the head unit consisting of the following:
(more info available at my website)
Sound:
· Pioneer DEH-P76DH Multi-CD control player with ID-Logic tuner
· CDX-P650 6-CD changer
· GM-X354 bridgeable four-channel power amplifier
· Pioneer speakers
- 6x9 2-ways in the rear
- 4" mid-ranges in the doors
- 1" dome tweeters in the dash
The installation was handled by Dennis at Strictly Security & Sound in Torrance, CA. Many thanks!
:nono Don't ask me about numbers at this time, I can't concentrate. :L
Hope this helps ya!
