Hey everyone,

I have the Bose stereo, and I was wondering if it is possible to replace the 4 door speakers with some better ones, and if I do, will it make a difference?? Input is appreciated!!! Thanks

I wouldn't do that.

Man, only if I had enough money to get the bose in the first place!

You have the AWESOME Bose system, so if I were you, I would just keep it factory and save some money.
The bose system sounds really good already.

I could only afford the cheapo GXE, so I HAD to replace the factory speakers, but for you, you already have good speakers. Spend the money on someting else, like fstb, rsb, or things like that.

A few issues. The bose drivers run at 1ohm load vs most industry standard drivers run at 4ohm load. The differance may degrage system performence rather then improving it. Your best bet would be to get a aftermarket radio with the Aftermarket speakers, bypass the bose amps and install another amp. But Unless U spend a lot of money it willnot match the performence of the bose Audio unless U get a Sub and components. I've done the bose swap and the OEM speakers sound cheap with bose headunit. Bose isn't the best by FAR but its a Really good system comeing from factory.

Leave it alone, or be prepared

to pay over 2K for an aftermarket system that will better the Bose. I did it but I have paid dearly. (I did not have the Bose to begin with.)
