I have the Bose package for my 05 g35x.
Is it just me or does the bose sub suck? I could barely hear the sub bump/kick. How does your bose sub sound? Do you guys think the my bose sub is broken? I want some kick to the sub but there seems to be none with the bose sub. How does your bose sub sound??

thanks..

 

Bose sucks period...

 

My friend has a 06 acura TL. His stock sub is much better than mine and its not even bose. His sub bumps alot more than my bose sub..

 

i thought Acura used Bose in all their cars...? my moms 06 Acura RL 4WD has bose and it sounds alot better than the G's

 

Search for the word "Bose" in this section and you will see that you aren't alone. Welcome to the Bose blows club.

 

my friends tl doesnt come with bose, i think its an option. but his non-bose system is much better than my crappy bose system....

im thinking that my bose sub might be messed up.. the sound is really low...

 

....mine sounds great. Some people think I have an aftermarket sub

 

you have the bose system?? what about your HU? im thinking that my sub might be broken or something, it doesnt bump at all..

 

Stock HU for now. I have Bass+3/treble+4

 

The bose system sounded fine with the factory HU, but now that I have an aftermarket one, the volume is INCREDIBLY low when listening to the radio. I'm basically stuck with the iPod and/or movies.

 

do you keep the SSV on? im not sure what it does but it does pump up the volume..

 

put the SSV on low

 

i like my bose system, i think it sounds good but then again ive never had a "good" system

 

I keep it off.

 

Bose does suck when compared to other aftermarket systems. But any time I get in a friends car or my company car that has the "base" factory stereo system there is a huge difference. I dont think Bose is meant to provide the type of bass or highs that you can get from an aftermarket system but it is definitely an upgrade from most factory base models that I've heard-IMO.

I say if you're not happy with the Bose system, spend some money and upgrade.
