I suspected that would be the case. They don't put out as much bass as some speakers, but you can't beat their sound quality.

Hey oasborn,

I'm just curious what method you used to get everything up and running wiring wise. Did you tap into the amp in the trunk for 12v amp turn on and run off the rear speakers using a SVEN to get small signal to your JL 600?

Also if possible, do you or could you get a photo or two of that hidden amp in the trunk as I'm just dying to see what it looks like. I should have my car in about three weeks but I just cant stand waiting!

Yes and onstar which can be the most important. This is pretty much the last issue I must figure out before installing my setup.

What if you used the JL audio clean sweep to run your amp...but to hook it up use the outputs from the factory amp....then you wouldnt need to use the center speakers amp output for the cleansweep which would allow it to continue working normally. My only concern with that would be if the sound of the center still working would be ruingin the rest of the setup

I really don't know what they did, but my onstar and bluetooth works fine.

So you are saying teh bluetooth and onstar sound comes from more than just the center speaker?

CamaroSkooter · 06-23-2009, 01:06 PM

bluetooth and onstar come through all speakers, not just the center channel
