Doesn't help much, but in my after-market system I installed a **** to adjust the sub separately.

I could just put in a rheostat there and adjust the volume without a big hack.

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.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I've noticed that the ever-so-clever super-duper Bose system boosts the subwoofer volume when I lower the top on my '02 cab. Problem is, it's way too much bass. I've got it turned down to the minimum on the head unit, to -7, but even that is too much for me with the top down (it's bearable with the top up). Is there any adjustment that I can make to the amplifier in the trunk, or am I going to have to kludge something in there? And if a kludge is in order, does anyone know which color wires go to the subs? Yeah, I know I should just drive without music and listen to the beautiful exhaust, but when you're in city traffic, stuck at a light, it's nice to have some tunes. Thanks all! Michael

POST 2Original post

Michael I just searched the schematic of the bose installation quite closely. I dont see any way it knows if the top is up or down.

POST 3Original post

Do you have the "Loud" switch on in the headunit? You can try turning "Loud" off and re-balancing tone after you turn it off.

POST 4Original post

Doesn't help much, but in my after-market system I installed a **** to adjust the sub separately.

POST 5Original post

I agree...there is a loud button on the right side once you press the tone controls....push it to see if it's on....it probably is. J

POST 6Original post

My system is useless with the loud button on !

POST 7Original post

heheheh some of us dont have the luxury of bass - tried replacing the subs in the door pods this weekend and the infitiy speakers i bought dont like being housed the plastic enclosures - waste of money i guess.

POST 8Original post

Focals will fit with some minor modifications to the OEM speaker covers. Do a search on Focals to gind a DIY about this.

POST 9 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Yeah! This is what I need, but for the stock system. To the other guys - yes, I made sure that the "loud" button is off, but thanks for the idea. Michael

POST 10Original post

THANKS GOTTA the problem with the infinities is that they must be free air as once housed in the plastic pods they distorted - - badly (the size was ok though) - - will the focals perform ok i the pods? thank you

POST 11 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Could you tell me which color wires go to the sub speakers? I could just put in a rheostat there and adjust the volume without a big hack. Thanks! Michael
