Hi all.Ive just helped remove a bose speaker set and amp from a Elite my friend is breaking.
As i helped remove it he offered it to me for a very good price. the thing is we removed all the speakers the amp and the loome is it just a case of removing all the standerd speakers and loome from my elite then plug all back in to the loome in the drivers side foot well.
Just wondered before i took it on tomorrow after work any advise would be grand.
With thanks
Chris.

I forgot to mention that im running it of my Alpine head unit that is wired into the iso plug so should all be wired up fine.

The bose does not operate at the same levels as non amp'd systems.

I will be using the BOSE amp. if it aint to good he still has the blaupunk/bose headunit so may have to put first dibbs in on that then lol.

Unless the Alpine has line level out, it won't work (though I seem to recall bose isn't quite line level out)

Cheers fella i will see how it goes tomorrow after work. the main bit i was after was does it just plug into the loome in the drivers footwell the same on my elite as it did on the 1 i took it out of.
Thanks for the help.

from what I remember, bose head unit outputs at line level (0.7V) - most pre-outs on aftermarket head units run at 2 or 4V. So you'd need to wire up the pre-out to speaker connections as that's where the bose amp takes its' input from ...

yes mate it just plugs in the same and a fuse is needed toi be fitted in fusebox with a picture of a speaker under it bud !! but it wont work unless you use the bose head unit bud !!
