OEM Nav w/Bose to Kenwood Nav Sound Issue
I have issues with sound quality after removing the POS OEM nav with Bose and replacing it with a Kenwood DNX 891HD.
When driving on the Interstate, depending on how fast I'm going, I have the turn the volume up to 20 or above to hear with the windows up and almost to the max of 35 with the roof out or windows down. Kenwood specs show the Speaker Impedance(Ohms) as 4-8 Ohms and Maximum Power (F/R) as 50Wx4.
Is there a conflict between the HU and the Bose amp/speakers? If so, what are my options? Can I just replace the Bose amp or do I have to rip out everything (minus the HU) and replace them with a different amp/speakers?
