Installed one of the polks in the dash, it sounds at least twice quieter than the stock bose, so will have to go your way and replace with 2 ohm speakers - either JBL or Infinity (should have done it in the first place)
Thanks! Found some more info on CX-5 Bose. Finally ordered 3-1/2 Polks for the dash.
I am looking for a good rear door speaker replacement and not sure about the mounting depth. You replaced rear doors speakers with 6-1/2's, if I am not mistaken, what model did you go with?
Spent hours googling, here is what I found on the russian forum (www.cx-5.ru):
now one more question - what is Bose amplifier per channel watt distribution?
Gogoputter: have you noticed any sound volume decrease after upgrade? I want to upgrade to either Infinity Kappa or JBl (both 2ohm) just not sure about watts of the stock Bose speakers
Hi guys!
I am thinking of changing Bose stock speakers with aftermarket ones. What are the Bose speakers specs (wanna find a close ohm match). Thanks!
Edit: I know the sizes, all of the speakers are 2 ohm, the question comes down to watts, any idea?
