Default Changing bose speakers

So far I've changed the complete bose speaker on my pass side.....a complete new assy. including enclosure....put radio on high...it's working great......But washes out......Oh...Oh....have I wasted my $$$$$$$$$$$

Thought it would work....although no more misses...crakling or humming....the sounds still are washed out....


Maybe after I change the driver's side speaker assy...?????


Will let you guys know....like you really care....Oh Well...........


thanks

If you're replacing it with just another Bose speaker then don't expect good sound. A Bose is a Bose, they just don't sound good. Instead try to enjoy it for what it is. ;)

Thanks for the info....

Guess I've already spent the $$$$$ , so I'm stuck with it for now.....will make the best out of it..

Sure would like to get a radio with a cd player...like a straight swap, with no other changes...


But can't seem to find one...

Again thank you for the input...

I like the:

Stereo
Equipment

acronym. :lol: :lol:

oldace - your dilemma is why I recommend to anyone that will listen that they spend the $300-800 up front (depending on what you get) to replace the whole darn Bose system instead of replacing/fixing failed Bose parts. It'll nickel and dime you to death and you'll wish you just spent the money and were done with it. For those that don't want anything better than the Bose and have not had breakdowns, no disrespect intended. I enjoy driving my car a whole lot more with the tunes cranked and crystal clear and the Bose just couldn't do that.
