I think he means that there's some type of warrantee on the amps.

I highly doubt they would replace those for free. There would be a line of about 1 million Nissan owners with flucked up Bose systems standing in line waiting to get their non-working Bose fixed.

eh, i wouldn't pay to replace them. at the moment i don't even know if the amps are causing the problem and could be the deck so first step is to install my premier mp3 deck and see what happens then. right now, when the stock stereo is turned on, loud blaring noise comes out of the right channel and the radio is barely audible..left channel is completely dead..we'll see what the problem is in a couple days.

It's your amps. You can use a regular aftermarket stereo on them either without using a special adapter to convert 4 ohms to 1 ohm.

well i installed a sony deck into my mom's 91 maxima 6 years ago and never had a single problem, for a year up until i totalled it why reduce the resistance after installing a more powerful deck? if anything wouldn't you want to increase the resistance considering the bose decks are just preamp outputs? from the symptoms it seems like the deck could be fried or somthing. i'll find out tomorrow. i just got the the car tonight 87,350 mi...$2,800

I kinda like my Bose system...although I have an aftermarket head unit, and my drivers side front speaker only works sometimes....but when it does, it all sounds pretty good, IMO. My sister had the head unit installed when she owned the car, and it hisses at the lowest volume. Is that because they didn't use the adapter?

Also- Mr.Gone- what do you want for those amps?

My latest car Aztec Red 92 SE had a screwed up Bose in it when I got it. Radio worked in one and a half speaker, CD player dead. Fixed all the amps, got a new head unit and it sounded OK with adapter, but not great. Took the adapter out, got four new speakers and got rid of all remnants of bose system and now it sounds great. To me it's ALL BOSE or NO BOSE.
