Since there is alot of misinformation in this thread, I'll try to help clear things up.
You do not need to bypass your factory amp.
You do not need to buy new speakers.
You should not run your pioneer deck at two ohms. Although it will work temporarily, it will drastically shorten the life of the Mosfet outputs. When speakers are playing, they change impedence as they move. That means a 2 ohm speaker will fluctuate between 1.5-2.5 ohms. Not good for your HU.
Stoffius: you have done your research and have all the correct parts. There is a test you should do to tell if your problem is in the Bose amp or the LOC. First disconnect all the speakers from the LOC. Turn the ignition of the car on and make sure the BOSE amp is powered on ( it will be powered on by the blue wire in the aftermarket harness.) Next take a 9.6 volt battery, like from a TV remote , or even a AA battery. With the amp powered on, touch each speakers outputs, pos and neg, to the pos and neg of the battery. You should hear that speaker pop slightly. If all speakers pop and are around the same loudness when they pop, your Bose amp is good, and your LOC is bad. My guess is its the LOC. Good luck
