Can the stock radio in my car power bose speakers? I am looking to upgrade.?
Question:
I have a 2006 trailblazer, and wanted to upgrade to Bose speakers. Can I simply just replace the speakers, or will I need a new receiver / cd / radio as well? Is the stock radio good enough to power the bose speakers, or will I need the bose radio as well?
Answer: Well...
upgrading to Bose speakers will require you to get the Bose head unit, amp etc.
Bose speakers are also different impedance rating compared to regular 4ohms.
They are like 2ohms --- which is very unconventional.
Bose does this intentionally so you cannot use their car speaker with other amps and head units.
Be careful with that brand. Bose speakers in cars are usually NEVER made by them. They spec out 3rd party manufacturers to make their speaker... then they tune it with their amps and head units --- all specified Bose. You can't mix and match with their equipment.
IMHO, I'd wouldn't get anything from Bose. Their quality - with closer look is very low. They budget all parts and manufacturing processes... most if not all of their car speakers are cheap untreated PAPER woofers that get damaged with weather, moisture, heat, cold [car environment]. You can't actually buy their speakers new... they are always used - 2nd hand from someone that did not like it... there's a reason for this.
Then --- their cheap speakers are forced with agressive DSP [digital signal processing] to MAKE them sound decent. With this, you get coloured, innacurate sound. BAD
I'd go with Alpine or Pioneer speakers.
Good Luck!
