Focal bus25 sub with Bose and nav

Dave s · 11-08-2013, 11:54 PM

I have a 2010 370z with the Bose system and nav. I have a focal bus25 under seat sub from another car. Is it possible to instal this In place of the factory sub in the spare wheel?
If so what would be required?
Any help is appreciated.
Cheers

Short answer, yes. You will need a LOC (line out converter) such as an AudioControl LC2i, power and ground. I know that is a short answer, hopefully it answers your question.

In the last install I just used the rear speaker wires as a single into the sub which is what the instruction manual said the sub was designed for. Do you think I could just use the signal wires that go to the factory sub?

Not in a Bose system you can't. The resistance levels are different, and you risk causing damage to your amplifier. You need to get a LOC as stated above. Its a simple, inexpensive product, and will save you alot of misery.
