Folks with the Boston Premium speakers...Does your rear deck rattle when you turn the volume up past 25? I listen to a lot of Rap and those songs with a lot of 808 kicks and basslines makes my rear deck sound like about to fall apart. I have turned the bass into the negative numbers and it still rattles on some songs..Is this normal?

Sorry not my taste in music. Listen to alot of hard rock and no issues.

I dont listen to rap, and I have not noticed a rear deck rattle but the speaker grill on my drivers side door rattles a bit.

it's probably just a little loose somewhere. one bolt or something not as tight as it should be. take it to your dealer... that's what the warranty is for

I would bring it back to the dealer and have them fix it. Does not sound normal.

No rear deck rattle, but the doors rattle. If I push my elbow on the silver part of the door really hard, it will stop.

I get a vague rattle from the back when I'm listening to talk radio (Howard Stern), I don't notice it during any music...

CamaroSkooter · 06-23-2009, 10:35 AM

You got the volume up past 25?!

Wow...

I can hit 30 listening to XM, but its REALLY LOUD at that level. Loud enough thats its completely clear at 70mph on the parkway with the windows down and sunroof open... I can only get it to around 22 listening to my iriver music player.

CamaroSkooter · 06-23-2009, 10:39 AM

I haven't dared to bump it up past 15, and 15 is pretty solid.

ssump29 · 06-23-2009, 10:41 AM

yeah it rattles the sound system is just really strong. I keep my bass at negative 2 always. I never turn bass positive on any system it makes everything sound dissorted and it blews speakers quicker. But yeah the system rattles the rear and shakes the hell out of the rearview mirrors. Great systems will do this

Yeah most of the time I'm around 15 or 20. I have the speed sensor set to low as well, I noticed with the windows up if its on medium it jumps WAY loud...

I don't hear any distortion at 30 with XM and it sounds good... its LOUD, but it sounds good.... maybe I'm going deaf....

CamaroSkooter · 06-23-2009, 10:43 AM

I think you're going deaf

Icntdrv55 · 06-23-2009, 10:43 AM

WOW I have had mine up all the way and no rattle just loud music!
