Bose w/Nav
Interesting discovery. After driving a Z with bose, but w/out nav...and now driving one w/Bose/Nav, there is a massive improvement in audio quality with the Navigation unit. It almost feels worthless to have it in the non-nav cars, based on how much better it sounds with. WTH?

Makes the road noise go away by just turning up the volume too.

Other than the different dash controls and nav integration, is there anything that would make the different Bose systems (touring w/o Nav vs. Touring w/nav) sound different, as the OP experienced ? Do they share the same speakers and amps ( I would assume they do).

are you playing mp3/cd or listening to the radio??
the 370z that i test drove had navi and the stereo was terrible, but it just turned out it was the radio station that was weak but that is just my personal experience |

I have a '10 with Bose and nav. I will be the first to say it's not the best system but it suits my needs just fine. You can turn it up pretty loud before you get any distortion. I have not heard a Bose w/o nav so I can't compare.
