Title: aftermarket headunit with elite bose sound system
Post by: elitekev on 24 June 2009, 17:46:59

is there a loom or easy way to get my jvc kv-adx1 headunit to work with the elites bose system? at the moment it has the ccrt700 in, put my headunit in and got no sound using the iso plug with the 2 plug ends on(3x plugs on car loom), can anyone help me with this?

Sorry, the JVC system is not compatable with the BOSE system. You will also need to replace the speakers as well, as the 2 Ohm BOSE ones will blow the JVC to bits should you opt for the preferred route of bypassing the BOSE amp.

Its failry well documented on here if you look through previous posts.

Only the Original BOSE head unit will work with the BOSE system, if you want to replace any part of the BOSE system, then it will have to be removed in its entirety, amp, wiring, head and speakers as none of it is designed to work with anything other than the BOSE system that Vx put in there from day 1.
