Hey guys, first topic here, and I'm not sure where to start and sorry if this has been posted already, but here I go. Currently, my '97 SE has a HU that looks like this:



Except it doesn't have the Bose logo on it, and from what I've seen, the non-Bose systems don't look like this. The Maxima, though, came stock with Pioneer 4 ohm speakers (6.5's all around, and tweeters up front), though so I'm pretty sure that it's not the Bose system, since the speakers would be 1 ohm if it really was Bose. Should i be worried, though? I haven't personally seen any Maximas that had this system without the word Bose on it, but since it's running my current speakers fine, I'm guessing I'm ok.

Now for my second and main question. I've replaced all the stock speakers with Alpine Type-S speakers, but for the front, I'm trying to figure out which line I should connect to the crossover that came with my component system. The stock tweeters had capacitors on them, so I know that acts like a crossover for it, but I've read that the line that feeds the is tweeters run in parallel off of the line that feeds into the woofers on the door. So which line should I use to plug into the crossover, the tweeter line or the woofer line?

 

They're both the same signal. Use the woofer line. You can catch it in the kickpanel or in the door. This way you have more room to mount the crossover.

 

clarion has a hu that looks just like the bose but isnt. the rear grilles do not have the bose logo on them either.

 

Ah, thanks for the info. It definately isnt the bose system then, thanks for the help!
