i have finally acknowledged that the stocck bose in my z sounds like s-it. would a new head unit solve the problem? are the speakers good enough to keep? is the head good enough? help,help,help. is nissan solving anybodys complaints?

 

lolzzzzzzzzzz

Bose suckkkkkkksssssssss

i got all Alpine Head Unit and Type R speakers for front and rear plus 10" JL W6 V2

sounds awsome and affordable prices too

 

What one person considers "good enough" is different for others. I consider all the Blose parts as crap. Almost any upgrade from the Blose is an improvement. What you change depends a lot on what your budget is.

Do you have the Blose amp "fix" mentioned in the TSB?

If I were to prioritize,
1. speakers
2. head unit
3. sub + amp

Although, some may say HU before speakers. These two are a toss up. Sort of the chicken or the egg dilemma. The speakers won't sound good if the source is crap. The HU is going to sound like crap if the sound delivery sucks.

My .02 cents.

Good luck.

 

blose,,,, thats funny....

will the dealer absolutly fix the amp issue?

 

where what and who make "type r". never heard of these. although i have been out of touch in the sound dept for a few years. interested.

 

its Alpine speakers Type R components SPR-176A

which is 1" tweeters and 6.5 mids

u can buy it around 202.00$ on www.crutchfield.com or

find it on ebay cheaper

 

I recommend going to an car audio shop to listen the all kinds of speakers. There are a wide assortment of speakers out there and everyone has their own particular taste. Also keep in mind that the speakers may sound different in the car than the show room. Nothing you can really do here, but maybe found someone else with a Z + aftermarket speakers.

TSBs are suggested fixes, but dealers are not legally obligated to fix. If one dealer won't fix it, a different dealership may.

Go with the Alpine SPX-177a components. On ebay for around 170/pair. Had them installed this past Saturday, with an Alpine 9833 head unit and a 60Wx2 amp. No sub, it sounds many times better than the stock setup. Also the crossover on the "X" speaker had loads of adjustments to fine tune the sound. Total cost with install was $800
