The car i have was without the subwoofers on the shelf but what i wanted to know was this......
N/s/f speaker on low volume has a scraping kind of sound, it sounds like the Voice Coil is scraping on the Former of the speaker, what i want to know is when replacing it will it be a standered speaker or are they uprated with the 700 unit with built in phone and stuff?
Also not 100 percent sure if its got the Bose Amp as i red its bolted underneth the shelf on a saloon?
If so the conections are there im sure ive seen them?
-
just a standard speaker bud :y
-
My CCRT700 unit is a BOSE one, its printed on the cassette flap, for the want of a better word!
Without the rear shelf speakers I don't think it'll be a BOSE system :y
-
If theres no Pre amp then is it worth shanging the head unit aswell as may add an Amp and uprate all speakers?
-
Are you not keeping the phone then mate?
-
I thought the Mv6 had Bose stuff, but mine has not!
Unsure of the Power output tbh , if its good ile keep it!

-
All mv6s as standard had the CCR 600 an upgrade to the CCRT 700 with the telephone facility was availible but no BOSE only elite's had that
thats what my 1998 MV6 sales brochure makes out anyway!

Suppose the alternative 'slit' wouldn't have been any better :-X

Not quite - pre 1998 MV6 didn't exist (will be plod), 1998 had ccr600, 1999 had ccrt700 (no bose), and 2000 onwards had cdr2005.

The BOSE wording on flap is not definative, as these units are quite old, many may have been reprogrammed to bose or non bose (its a simple software config change)

Only if you know! ;) I wonder how many Vauxhall owners know that? :-/ :y :y :y

Please.............do tell :)

Need proper diagnostic equipment to be able to put a new software config on it, end user can't do it.
-
And what does this Software do to the Configuration?
What is the diffrence in overall sound quality :)

the software config just flicks it between bose and non bose. If you don't have bose amp and speakers, you can't run ccrt in bose config.

Ahh i got you, i think im gunna upgrade then if i have the 700 unit and look for Amp and shelf Woofers, i take it its as easy as plug and play with config?

Fairly easy to fit - you do need loom that runs along side of car though. Additionally, you need to replace the door speakers with Bose ones.
You will need a parcel shelf from a Bose'd car (or cur yours yourself), and if its a 1999 or later car, you will need to drill the holes for the shelf speakers yourself.
-
The holes are there, but theres a plate attached over then from factory, looks to be spot welded but im sure its easy enough to do!
The loom you say is this from the head unit to the Amp?

Can't speak for the non-Bose unit, but am more than happy with my current setup when playing cds. It's more than loud enough with no distortion whatsoever, not like the chavmobile drum n bass sounds you hear from some cars.

Not on 1999 and later cars - you have to get the drill out ;)
-
Am more than comatant enough to do that im sure!
The loom then, where does this go and what does it connect too, is it unit to Amplifier ?
Is the Amplifier just for the woofers?
Does the Bose front speakers just run from the Head unit or is this in connection to the Amp aswell?

loom from kick panel to amp/cd changer (cd changer loom is integrated, so you swap your cd changer loom for bose loom).
All speakers fed from amp, HU provides non standard Bose level signal to amp (via bose loom), and amped audio send back down bose loom to drivers kick panel, where it then goes off to doo speakers.
-
Ok so its a matter of just plugging in, then i take it configuration?
