I’m not all that happy with the Bose in my truck either. They do sound better than the typical vehicle sound system, but they are not on par with a custom installed sound system. The comparison is similar to this thread’s comparison. I thought the Infinity system in my last Dodge sounded much better.
Every new vehicle I get, I pull out the factory sound system and install a new one. Not a big deal, about two days work and a couple grand. But this stinking Bose system in my Denali became too friggin complicated for me to do without getting some professional help. They’ve gone so far as to tie the damn door chimes into the system along with On-star and the PassLock Security system!!! The damn “sub woofer” is nothing more than a paper cone 6” driver that’s stuffed into the console with its own cheesy amp. And I can’t even swap out the speakers for some good aftermarket speakers because this $#^##^$ Bose system has its very own impedance that is not compatible to ANY aftermarket speaker.
…………I’m really starting to dislike Bose.
