Aftermarket Deck with Bose speakers

chirowolf

Just finished my HU install I have a 2009 touring with the Bose. I replaced just the Hu and kept everything else.
I installed a
Pioneer AVIC Z120BT
Pac SOEM-4
Axxssess ASWC with all steering wheel contols working
Pioneer backup camera.
Scoche wireing harness

Everything works great. It took me awhile to get everything properly installed( did some dynamating too) but can be done. Was able to fit the PAC under the HU and the Axxess to the side of the HU. tight fit all in all.

I think it sounds much better than the Bose. I have much more control over my sound stage adn my EQ settings. I would say night and day differencees in sound quality. granted I'm not the best audiophile out there, but I know what I like.. I now also have Nav, DVD. adn rear view camera
Without the PAC The volume is very hard to adjust. turning the radio to 7 would blow you out of the car. With the PAC you can adjust the outputs and the volume becomes much more controllable. I did not use the RCAs in the PAC setup. you have the choice of RCAs or just direct wire. While I had the Soldering Iron out I just soldered up all the wires.

I plan to put details of my install up later. If you have any questions jsut reply to this post or PM me
