Speaker/Amp blown HELP
So everything was great on my car.....than the back right speaker started making a white noise which I was told was the amp that went bad. I am debating fixing it but does anyone know who can rebuild these in NJ? Or i got a quote for a double din alpine 7inch navi/bluetooth headunit and 4 alpine type s speakers for about $1400. Has anyone had this set up? bc the headunit only supplies 200 watts to the 4 speakers im wondering if it will be better than the stock bose. Also I don't know if i trust any shop to take out my headunit. I am afraid of the plastics breaking bc my interior is so mint and the piece with the power keys are expensive/hard to find. So i just uplugged the back right speaker so i can listen to clear music but im debating on doing a headunit. does anyone know of shops in NJ or close by that have experience with our cars installing headunits?

Re: Speaker/Amp blown HELP
If your rear speaker is making a static sound it is probably the amp. I had to replace both my fronts. You should be able to easily find them on ebay or thru any of the corvette sites for about $100.00 to $140.00 as well. Me being me with my O.C.D I think an aftermarket unit won't match the rest of the interior design.

Re: Speaker/Amp blown HELP
I saw that heibeck rebuilds them and some corvette stereo website sells them rebuilt too im wondering if anyone used a double din with alpine type S speakers or similar. And how the system compares to stock bc i believe our bose has better bass. Navi and bluetooth would be nice but idk if i want to go aftermarket yet and i havent found a shop i know that has taken out radio of out cars. I hear stories of them breaking our plastics covers.

My wife (whose car it is) was all impressed with it but the strokers who installed it stripped the battery when they swapped the bolt to a stud for their big supply wire. This lead to a no-secondary condition so it's just been sitting dead in the dash ever since, partly because I can't figure out how to remove it. The car has become an event-only car so there's not much time for watching DVDs, and if you need a nav at an autocross you're already in trouble .I'd cut you a pretty good deal on it if she'd let it go (and I can figure out how to remove it)! Come to think of it I have to figure out how to pull the rocker speakers out too... Cheers, - Jeff

Re: Speaker/Amp blown HELP
Last year I replaced the front amps and speakers and the complete rear units (amps, speakers and housings) with new parts I got directly from BOSE for under $600

Re: Speaker/Amp blown HELP
I like to keep things stock-looking, if possible. So, last month I had all 4 of my amps rebuilt at Doctor Dons. When I bought my car, I had zero sound coming from the speakers. After getting the amps rebuilt, I had a slight amount of volume only. So, I sent my CDM to Doctor Don's for rebuild and now everything works great (except the CD player, maybe that's next).
Getting the speaker amps out was pretty simple...the CDM took about half an hour after watching quite a few YouTube tutorials. |
