I have the Bose rear speakers out of my car that I replaced with new JBL speakers. The Bose speakers are in perfect working order but I just don't need them anymore. pictures are now posted below

I should not have replaced them - the new JBLs don't sound any better :wtf:

I can send them to you inside the JBL box .... let me know

 

[Stu]

no one wants 'em ?

Are the speakers in good working order

Why did you replace them? Were they working well, with no static or other problems?

 

[Stu]

the price is $60 including shipping

Sorry, I forgot to post the pics, I will shortly.

Yes they were working 100% perfectly. There was no static or any other problems. I replaced them with $200 JBL speakers hoping the stereo would sound better .... and it sounds exactly the same !

Most of the time there won't be much of a difference between aem speakers unless you add a amp to them. What kind of headunit do you have?

 

[Stu]

Its the OEM Bose premium headunit. I replaced my rear speakers because I guessed they were finished, but it was the amp that wasn't working.

 

[ChainedLGD]

bose only works with bose. you will need to bypass the amp all together. which unfortunately means new head, wire, speakers, and amp(optional)

You are only partly correct.
The OEM Bose premium system will work perfectly with any 2 ohm speaker.

2 ohm speaker are a lot harder to find - as most car audio is 4 ohms - but if you get 2 ohm speakers you can use non Bose speakers.

i've seen bose systems that run from .5 up to 2 and 8 or 10. instead of finding speakers that will work for bose its a lot better to just change the head and speakers altogether. the sound will be much better especially if you add a aem amp. sorry i thought you didn't have car audio knowledge so i said bose works with bose as a simple answer. Are the jbl's 2 ohm?

I may replace everything eventually, but for now I'm content.

Yes, the JBLs are 2 ohm.

How did you know the amp is bad? Did you have it tested or something?

I have the Bose 2100, 2 ohm, 80W system and I think it sounds bad now. I have been trying to figure out what to do. I like the clean OEM headunit look, but I want MP3 and USB support. I also don't like my CD in the trunk. Starting to sound like a major change...
