Next, plug the wiring harness of the new speaker into the circuit board where you unplugged your blown speaker. You'll want to secure your wiring connections with several layers of electrical tape to make sure the wiring won't come apart easily. Next, splice the old speaker's wiring harness onto the black and red speaker wires on the new speaker. Now, using your wire strippers, splice the black and red speaker wires on the new speaker so that the bare copper wire is showing at the end of the wire (do NOT strip too much of the wire). Next, using your wire strippers, cut the wiring harness off the new speaker about halfway into the wiring. The wiring harness that will come attached to your new speaker is too short to reach the back of your Wave, and therefore, you'll need to splice your old speaker's wiring harness onto the new speaker.įirst, using your wire strippers, cut the wiring harness off of the old speaker about halfway into the wiring.

So, with all that in mind, let's get started!īefore you install your new speaker into your Wave, you'll first need to prep the wiring for installation. Your Wave system must also NOT have buttons on top to be eligible for this repair (these systems are controlled exclusively by the included remote control). These systems look almost exactly like the unit pictured, BUT there is NO front-mounted OR top-mounted CD player, it is a radio ONLY. In addition, the repair should all work for all of the newer Bose Wave Radios from late 2005 on (the Wave Radio II and Wave Radio III, which was recently replaced by the newest Wave Radio). It will work if your Wave has the front-loading CD player that works like a car's CD player, NOT the top-loading CD player with the top-mounted lid like the older Wave Radio/CD's had. This repair should work for any of the Bose Wave Music Systems from late 2004 on (again, my system is from 2005), which all look like the one pictured here (the Wave Music System I, Wave Music System II, or Wave Music System III, which was recently replaced by the newest Wave Music System). Since my unit was almost 9 years out of warranty, I didn't have to worry about voiding my warranty. By performing this repair, and opening the unit, you do understand this, and Bose will no longer honor the warranty. Now, before I go on, I must make a small disclaimer: By performing this repair, if your Bose Wave radio is still under warranty, performing this repair, and opening the unit, WILL VOID THE FACTORY WARRANTY. They wouldn't give me a repair estimate without seeing the unit first, so I decided to take matters into my own hands: I would replace the blown speaker myself. Not knowing what to do next, I contacted Bose directly and asked what to do about having my radio repaired. Recently, I noticed that the right side speaker was starting to sound "blown". Unlike conventional or aftermarket automotive systems, Bose systems were designed and tuned for a specific vehicle.I own a Bose Wave Music System that I purchased nearly a decade ago. In the early 1980s, Bose engineers created the world’s first factory-installed premium automotive sound systems. Coming soon, the 2017 INFINITI Q50 sedan will be the next Performance Series-equipped vehicle.
What is a bose twiddler series#
The INFINITI Q60 represents the first of several future models that will feature a custom-engineered Bose Performance Series system. And it’s powered by an 11-channel Bose digital amplifier mounted inside the Q60’s rear quarter panel. The system also uses the latest generation of proprietary Bose Centerpoint® surround signal processing and AudioPilot® noise-compensation technology. Two additional 3.25-inch (80mm) Twiddler speakers - one in each rear quarter panel - provide acoustic balance for rear-seat passengers. Instruments and vocals sound separate and more precise, giving the listener the feeling of being in the front row of a live concert.

Included in the Bose Performance Series system are new 1-inch (25mm) tweeters - one in each mirror patch - engineered for improved high-frequency output and more accurate sound reproduction.įor low frequencies, two new Bose 6×9-inch (150x230mm) woofers built into the Q60’s rear deck work in combination with a pair of upgraded 10-inch (255mm) Bose Nd woofers - one in each door - to deliver more impactful, natural sounding bass with less vibration and distortion than comparable systems, and without requiring a separate bass box enclosure.įive 3.25-inch (80mm) Bose Twiddler mid-/high-range speakers across the Q60’s forward cabin are combined with proprietary Bose Advanced Staging Technology signal processing to produce a soundstage that feels much wider than the confines of the cabin.
