    they got me/my mom this summer. i gave her my old car with the jvc double din... jbl 61/2 in all the doors on a 4 channel jbl amp and 2 jbl 12s on a monoblock amp ... threw a brick thru the window snatched everything out. insurance had to total the car out

    I ain't know ? was still stealing car radios

    if it's a DIN or double DIN like aneed123 had then yup. There's still a huge need for aftermarket radios for older cars. Personally, the one reason I have no interest in owning any of these newer cars is because of the OEM stereos and how they're integrated into the cars so you can't replace them. Give me an older 90's or very early 00's ride that I can throw a stereo in and I'll roll that ? like y'all younger cats do these new whips.

    yup plus the radio amp can push after market components if u dont want a 4 channel. i want to replace the radio and speakers in my infiniti but the factory rafio cant be taken out and it can only push the cheap made factory speakers... itll cost an arm and a leg to do basic ?

    That's because it's Bose, and Bose is on some ? ? with the way they integrate everything.

    I've been looking at W140 S-classes lately and if I could get one in decent shape for a decent price my first order of business would be to completely gut the Bose sound system in it. Supposedly it's Bose's hands down best system they've ever put in a car, but it still sounds like trash to me just like the system in my old ML500 did. I've had to replace Bose sound systems in Maximas, Corvettes, older Benzes, 2nd gen 300ZX's, and other cars and they're ALL a pain in the ass to do. The easiest by far was the late 80's/early 90's Maximas because the amps Bose used were directly attached to the speakers so all I had to do was really swap out the radio and speakers and run new wiring from an aftermarket amp or from the radio. The rest, especially the W140's, are a nightmare.

    Ive always loved Bose and hands down they have been best sound systems Ive had, I had one in my Cayenne and it was better than any Harman Kardon system I previously had...

    Its funny you mentioned Benz though, because the Harman Kardon I had in my C63 was WACK so I thought they had gone downhill and was skeptical about them when looking for my M4 (clearly sound systems play a big part in buying a car) and thought about looking for one with the Burmester upgrade for BMW but they are are rare and cost a fortune though, and I think they need to be done from when you build the car from new, but the thankfully the Harman Kardon in my M4 is amazing like they had been pre the C63, so I cant imagine how dope the Burmester must be, I would love to hear one... Though Ive never heard and Bang & Olufsen system in a car like an Audi they are probably dope...

    But I find the new Benz's to be weaker then the BMW's in build quality, the BMW build seems to be more solid and built better/sturdier imo which effects the sound system quality... Any rattles in the cabin or poor packing in the doors etc to lower weight and you dont get the full power from the system...

    TBH I think the standard BMW sound sytem, what ever its called is pretty good too...

    are u into car audio? i ask that cuz if u take a bose door speaker out it got paper cones and is light and flimsey. in comparison 2 a after market speaker which is heavy with a big magnet and u can see the quality. bose is more for mid and highs. also their factory radio or amp are made for 2ohms 6 1/2s speakers so lets say u wanna replace them or one bust...u wont get the same sound cuz most after market are 4ohms. then u gotta get a,amp etc... it be a,hassle.

    I am, or was haha I used to gut out my sound systems when I had VW's and was into 'boy racer type cars', I would spend alot putting in 3x10's on the back parcel shelf, change all the speakers, put subs, amps, tweeters, dynomat the lot etc but when I got more expensive cars like the Cayenne, X6, M4's etc I wouldnt/havnt changed a thing that isnt done at the factory/originally spec'd out, last thing I want is someone tearing out my car when I paid £40-£45k for it, especially as it could come back with a rattle... Im pretty sure the Bose systems they put in the Porsches especially in the late in the 2000's are different to what youre talking about brother (i believe they use gold metals and diamond, particularly on the wires), also I think there are different tiers, I even just had a quick Google and it seems to confirm this, and looking in my M4 which has Hardon Kardon, the speakers look all metal in the door... Also with Loud Speaker System that comes with Hardon Kardon it sounds perfect for me, and TBH out of all the money I spent over the years on sound systems nothing has been better and had a perfect balance than the systems I HAVNT touched like in my Cayanne, X5, X6 or M4 and they came with a Bose or Harman Kardon, though the C63 was wack I'll admit that but I had mad issues with that car full stop grrr also with too much base I find it just warps the music and makes the all the windows shake (which i used to like though haha) but as my car is now you can still the feel the base, just like a home entertainment system or cinema, but you can hear the lyrics and beat perfectly too...
