Suggestion

- Run an RCA cable from the head unit to the new amp, split this signal with Y connectors to give me 4 channels to power the 4 front channels.

These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

1 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1Original post

I just picked up an 06 Cayman S with 25k miles. Great car! Except - It has the CDR-24 with bose. I've already picked up a Kenwood DDX 6903S head unit and planned on using a Connects2 CT51-PO04 HUR harness. Long story short - After over a month of waiting, checking, and being told it should be at my house any day now the place I ordered it from finally told me it hadn't shipped from England yet. I cancelled the order and am waiting for a refund... I’m not ready to swallow hard and go $650 ish for the NAV HUR. So, on to plan B - Pull the Bose amp and replace it with an aftermarket and try to keep the stock speakers. My plan: - Pick up the mating connector for the vehicle harness in the frunk so I don’t have to cut many wires ($45 - it'll pay for itself in cursing) - Run an RCA cable from the head unit to the new amp, split this signal with Y connectors to give me 4 channels to power the 4 front channels. - The rear speakers will be fed from the head unit - Pick up a CAI subwoofer retention harness. Looks like it takes the RCA output and just combines the shields into one wire and the center pins into another. I may just make this myself (another $45). Short run from the head unit to the sub – minimal wire cutting. My questions: - Are there crossovers for the front dash tweeters and the door mounted mids? - What is the impedance of the rear speakers? Will I overload the head unit powering them directly? If you’ve done this or know the answers please let me know. Thanks in advance.
