I am in a really deep hole now. My Bose radio is dead! I've looked for places that repair them but no one does. I also called Nissan just for the heck of it but for a new Bose system they wanted $1,100 and for repairs over $400.

I went to Circuit City yesterday but the guy was like you can't buy a new head unit because your Bose speakers would burn them. So I also need new speakers, after installation and parts my total comes up to over $600. I don't want to spend that much into audio. In my Altima I was decked out with audio but in the Max I went toward more performance and looks.

Now I don't know what to do. There is no way I am going to spend that much cash into something I don't care for. Those that played around with the Bose radio, got any advice or things for me to check out? If not should I just buy a Bose radio of the org? And are all 95-99 Bose radios compatiable with each other?

Thanks in advance.

 

Are u just after a simple upgrade ex. 4 speakers and a new HU?

 

get 4 infinity kappas n a alpine 4 channel amp for 400 mulas.. its gooood

 

No my Bose is dead and I don't want to get new speakers. I want to find someone selling their Bose but I'm not sure if a 99 would fit mine. I called Nissan and they said "Trial and error."

Do I really have to replace all my speakers if I get a new head unit? Isn't there anything else I can do? I don't want to throw away all that extra money away just for speakers cause mine are fine.

 

from what i have seen the bose system uses an amplifier which is not compatable with after market head units. In some cases an adapter can be used but most of the time u have to go around the stock stuff and use new speakers. 2 pairs of 6.5" decent coax;s will only set u back $100 bux, def something to think about. If u want i have 2 new sets of cdt audio cl-6x's 6.5" coax's i can sell ya for $100 shipped.

 

GO to a audio place like here I have radio activity and stereo one just a car audio place the guys there told me that they can order an adapter for just a head unit to work with the bose speakers for like 30 bucks

 

1) get a new headunit ~$100-150(if all you want is sound)
2) get a PAC-OEM2 ~$20-35(if you want to use your stock bose 1ohm speakers)

 

change your hu and keep the speakers. i have bose with an alpine hu sounds much better

 

yeah just get the adapter for the headunit to work with the bose speakers for like 35 bucks.... or just buy my factory bose headunit

 

35 dollars? what adapter is that? i dont have that i just have the 2 harness
