So you're going to add this 10" sub along with your current setup?

I have to talk to my installer. We were thinking about doing more work to my trunk. The thing is I like to have a trunk to use so I don't want any fiberglass to take up all my space. This might work covered in leather to match my current setup. I would just add 2 JL 10"

The coupe box with the standard grill is $299. The box with the Infiniti grill is $335.
I'll be ready to purchase this weekend. I'll be getting the standard grill.

Id rather use the clean 5V preout from my eclipse head unit than run a Line out converter from the bose head unit and get "ok" sound.

Not competing in IASCA or anything like that, so I'll have to settle for "ok" sound. I did have an Eclipse head unit in my Accord, and it was sweet.

I use to do competition stereo so I took it up to my friend and we did a SQ check on it using the IASCA cd and it sounded very good. The frequency response was a little flat at 300Hz but I guarantee if you are using signal pre-amp you will not hear the difference but if you are so inclined a new headunit would be nice. Another thing is that this is not typically what you consider a high level input. It is much lower than post amp.

Nice! That's good to know that the response was pretty good. I'm sure any new amp/speaker combo will sound 10x better than the bose setup, even if we do keep the stock head unit.

What kind of LOC would be good if you're just adding two amps?

This unit makes it very easy.

Pac AOEM-Nis2

You can then run new wires for the mids and highs or use the stock wires where the stock bose amplifier is(drivers side trunk panel next to the spare tire. Hope I helped.

Glad I could help. For such a nice car the system leaves alot to be desired. Good luck. Somewhere around here or FreshAlloy they have the colored wiring diagram for the lines at the bose amp. It's pretty straight-forward. Enjoy the choons.

It says it's for bose systems only. Now I know that the HU is the same as the Bose system, so will this thing work for coupes without bose?

Run them back to your aftermarket amp. Signal out of the amp goes to the stock speaker wires or the new ones you put in.

RCA's would connect to your amp
