was faster than I knew before i added my reply...hey thanks for the info Wreck....My last question is: Koni...I checked out the audio control EQ and from what I read I see you are using the 4 speaker level inputs and also using the Front RCA inputs....WHY?.....and you are comming out of the EQ Front & Rear RCA....to your ARC amp RCA inputs front and rear....my other question is how are you feeding the Bose 6x9 "subs".....??? Doesnt the ARC amp need all 5 channels fed to it in order to throw out all 5 signals? (Front L/R, Rear L/R and Subwoofer) or can it /does it take 4 RCA inputs FRNT/REAR and put out all 5 anyway??.....Clear this up for me if you will.....I'm just going by your pic and what I read on that equipment....I need some detailed info....some stuff is just too vague.

First let me say the installation was done at Audio Crafters in Pasadena. Let me see if I can answer some of the question posted. I think the EQ wakes up the tweeters but a sub would really complete the system for my needs.

1. I didn’t bypass the Bose amp completely. See drawing.
2. The EQ has built in high input.
3. The amp is a 4 channel amp. 2 for the front speaker, 2 for the rear. 2 from the Bose for the stock subs.
4. The wiring color codes were posted by wreck already. Thanks wreck.

I’m getting a sub enclosure built that will take very little trunk space. Since I already have a 4 channel amp and don’t want to add another amp (trying to keep it simple).
This is how it will get connected:

Two channels for the door speakers.
Bridge the other two channels for the new single 10 inch Diamond Audio sub.
Bose amp for the rear speakers.

I made a diagram of the current setup. Hope this helps.

Will you run a separate volume control to your Bose amp/sub ?
(The purpose being to control your front staging from the Hu and have independent control over the sub in whatever config your front staging requires).

My plan is the same as yours except no Bose amp (the Head front & rears will run into my Basslink AND into my Soundstream Rubicon for the 4 channels f&r. The Basslink has it's own volume control.

Not criticizing, just asking before all my stuff gets here and I start phase 2 of my audio project (the Basslink is already installed, but not permanently).

Are you going to connect the rears and the sub together ?

But your right, I have to investigate what I can do to seperate the volume from the rear speakers and the sub.

Maybe use the levels on the EQ for now since the rear speakers and the sub have different amps.

 

Koni are you going to be at the meet? I would love to listen to your setup. I was trying to map out my system and would like to stick with the stock HU, EQS, my arc 4050, scanspeak rev 7inch, lpg tweeter, custom xover. I love the low end of the revelator 7s so I'm debating on putting a sub in my car (space issue). Is the EQS in the spare tire area?

I wanted to keep my spare so we put the EQ under the Bose amp.

I'll see you at the meet.

 

Koni,
I'm going to connect my sub (Infinity Basslink) to both the front and rears. The Basslink comes with its own remote volume control, so I can control the sub volume from in the driver's seat.

Right now (since my system is being done piecemeal) the sub is connected to the rears only. It makes it more difficult to get the front staging correct.

I'm Late getting back to this posting....(they need to send you a email when anyone posts to this thread, and not just to your particular post...thats kinda silly) ANYWAYS...Koni just wanted to say thanks for the diagram...clears up all my questions....Thanks again....I think I got my plan down now thanks to all you guys!!....going to do my stereo this commin spring '04 ....I'll deal w/ the Crappy Bose for thru the winter...

plus I just got the TSB for the rear parcel deck rattle done so it sounds somewhat better without that freakin rattling....But I'm into Hip-Hop so it still does rattle a little but I figure I'll let them slide on that cause it is Hip hop Bass pumpin through there...........Even though my Lexus doesn't and never did rattle!!!.........One day Nissan will step it up....But like you guys are doing , I guess we gotta make it happen 4 ourselves....THANKS AGAIN FELLAS!!

So its not possible to cut in before the Bose amp unless you have an EQ? If so does the Bose Amp de-equalize everything? I am talking with a shop about doing mine...they want to cut in after the amp? (I want to do some custom fiberglass enclosures...and I just can't do that, no time/knowledge)

You CAN cut into the Bose system in front of the amp...having an EQ is irrrelevant. You cut into the wires, and either use an LOC or an amp which accepts low voltage signals from heads and you'll be fine. EQ is optional, I found it desireable.

I would say NOT to cut in AFTER the Bose amp. The Bose Tech Svc Rep indicated that the amp has some equalization built in, so if you cut in AFTER the Bose amp, (which you can do), you may have to "correct" Bose's preset EQ scheme.

It's just as easy to remove the Bose amp completely, and sounds great doing so.
