Hello everyone,

I am just looking for a real quick answer. How can i install a system with my factory bose head-unit? ( i dont want to install a custom head-unit, just want to keep what i have.)

anyways i ONLY want to put a SMALL bit of bass, so im buying two visonik subwoofers (600watt rms) and a visonik amp (300w rmsx2).

Im obviously going to install a hidden bass regulator, but like i said, i know i need some type of converter to install to my factory system ... so how do i do it?

thanks for the replies.

 

to add - i also have this installed - http://www.logjamelectronics.com/pacaainis.html

anyone know what add-on i can use?

 

I had a basslink II installed..
and you get the sound source by splitting
the back speakers..

 

check out the audio forum, here's a sticky:

tap into the rear deck speakers for signal...then connect your inline converter to that then to the amp...

 

DON'T tap into the speaker lines, get your signal before the bose amp where alot of the equalization occurs. Then get a line convertor that changes balanced signals into a regular signal, or use an amp that accepts balanced inputs such as JLs or some Alpines

 

well easiest way is from the back speaker lines..
and my system sounds good.. just wanted some
extra thump.. thats it..

 

okay. well where would i get RCA inputs and remotes from? I mean, i understand the Subwoofers, but wont i need an amplifier to push it?

 

get a LOC and convert the rear deck speaker wires into RCA inputs for the amp. power is from battery to amp. speaker wires from amp to subs. tap into the remote for the bose amp.

 

MY GOD!!! I wish people who have NO IDEA what they are talking about would just stop posting, just for the sake of posting.
For all you guys that suggested tapping the rear speakers, PLEASE stop posting on audio threads, because you dont have the slightest clue as to what youre talking about!
Im not trying to be rude, but youre steering people who have even less of a clue than you do, in the wrong direction!

theres plenty of good information in the audio forum. I strongly suggest you go read it.

with that said, LOC or Hi-Levels are your best bet. either one, you do BEFORE the Blose amp. NOT AT THE SPEAKERS!

 

okay, with that said, i know how to get the remote, power, ground, etc. but what is LOC or Hi-Levels? is that a converter for RCA's?

have a link of where i can buy? and also, if so, will it work if i already have this installed: http://www.logjamelectronics.com/pacaainis.html ?

 

yeah, as far as i know, that PAC is just an auxiallary port. on the beginning end of the house. that wont have anything to do with the amps or anything.

LOC will give you RCAs, and a hi-level would be a direct line into the amp. (the 4-pin square plug that is on most amps.) do a google search to research it more thoroughly. its very easy to do, maybe youll feel comfortable doing yourself even. either way, its good to know whats going on in your ride. PM me if you need to.
