It has not been dynomatted and the trunk does rattle but not too bad. I will dynomatt it soon. The subs have not affected the bose system at all. They seem to work good together. The bass sounds great

 

Mikeb, ask EASTMOON about the "flat cover" you can get for that cubby hole, that way you could use the rest of the trunk space without squishing the Amp.

EDIT: nevermind I just noticed your custom cover.

 

Did you try it at all with the woofers facing backward? What/how did you get the line input into the amp?

 

how much power are you running and how much was the install total cost?

did you splice into the rear speaker wires??

 

more details please...

That is a real nice looking job and I'm glad to hear that doesn't mess with the audiopilot. How many watts on the amp?

-JiM

 

The amp is 600 watts and two channels.
Each sub takes 300 watts they are JL audio w3 subs.
Total price for the box, 2 subs, amp, custom amp tray cover and installation was $700.00

The rear speakers were not tapped into. The subs sound great and I haven't had any problems with the bose speakers. I had a shop here in cali hook it up called advanced car creations.

 

if you didn't tap the speaker connections where is your input source scoming from -as there has been much speculation on the impedence of the BOSE system..Did you connect directly to the rear amp/xover--if so where and at what output/impedence rating?

 

Like I was saying the shop did the install so I can't say for sure. But I don't think they tapped into any of the stock bose system. They just added the amp and subs and of course the ground, remote, power wires and rca wires.

 

Rca wires.. exactly. Please ask them where they attached the RCA wires for signal input. The deck?

 

Whoa.. cool.. are you still using the stock rears or did you pull them?

 

all bose speakers are still in use and I will ask the shop where the rca's were tapped into

 

good man

glad to hear it, you install sounds really nice and looks good too, hopefully ill get around to getting some money and adding some subs...

im thinking of putting in these alphasonik 800 series 10inch subs and i dunno what kinda amp, but i dunno lol

anyway, thanks a lot and keep the info coming

I'll call the shop that did the system tomorrow and see if they used a hi low converter and where they tapped in to make it work

 

Sweet install.. I like the amp cover..

 

I went to tweeter last week and they said you can tap into the rear speakers without splicing the wires. I don't know what kind of connection it is, but the new amps have automatic sensors that judge when its getting power and can "figuratively jump right into the music" and have it sound great. I was looking at putting the same speakers in but only 10's. They would fit in on the side where there is a reasonable indentation in the sides of the trunk. They can custom make a casing for them and showed me before and after shots of similar trunk set ups. They said its not that hard to tap into a bose system if you buy the better equipment. I think after all is said and done it will be $350 for the amp and install and another $500 for the two subs. I have to get two enclosures made since one 10 will go in both sides. I think it might eliminate my ability for a golf bag though. I thought about putting them back against the seat, but that would eliminate the advantage of being able to go from the back seat to the trunk. I like to fish, and need to be able to put fishing poles through the rear seats. I'll probably get that work done in the next two weeks and post pics when I'm done.

You guys are right. I was looking at my subs last night and the rear speakers is what the shop tapped into for my system. I will take pics later. btw the subs sound really good

 

here is two pics of where they tapped into rear bose speakers to add my 2 subs

 

and..

 

ahhhhhh another fisherman!

thanks for the pics dude

But where does the POWER come from? Is it run from the bat or is it stolen from the BOSE amp as well?
