'05 Chevy Z-71 w/ BOSE stereo upgrade. How can I wire the BA-200 ?

The Bose system has an amplifier located under the center console of my bucket seat model. I had a standard wiring diagram, but it does not help in this situation, Are there any specialty items needing purchasing and what are the correct wire / wire connection diagram to make the unit play properly

    When connected according to the STD. wiring diagram, I had total loss of the R/R speaker & unsatisfactory play out of the L/R. Is a crossover required for this application?

    Thanks Dan Bro. for your helpful & resolving knowledge. I am not, nor feel I need all that...it sounds Great Anyway.  It was a leftover item from my last truck's  factory system upgrade.  It definitely helped that particular vehicle's overall sound.  Thanks a million,  saved me a lot of time and aggravation!!!!

Unfortunately, it's not as simple as a crossover. Bose gets its name from making complete systems - meaning - Bose speakers work right because the amplifier is custom built for those speakers, and the deck is custom built for the amplifier- all Bose from beginning to end. The only way to bypass any part of a Bose system is to bypass the whole system, including amp, deck, subs, speakers, eq's, and start over from scratch, unless you are an electrical engineer and can meter components and evaluate them. Bose often has 1 or 1/2 ohm speakers which will not work with after market systems.  If you go to a Bose store, the only system that sounds good is the lifestyle system because it is Bose from beginning to end, just as an example. They are either cheaters or geniuses

    No problem. If it was an Infinity system, you can do some cool stuff with it. I like Bose but unless you have all Bose, it doesn't work or sound right. Pretty clever marketing if you asked me.

Need to know what is the easiest way to convert a
It is possible but its going to take some patient custom work. You basically have to remove the entire stereo system out of your 93 Cam and then prewire the 93 to prepare the install of the 5 speaker bose system.

You have to modify the space for the bose speakers from the 96. You have to make sure that when you install the system that the speakers are in-phase meaning that they are not going to sound with the woofers sucking in but pushing out like they have to, to get you best sound, you then have to find a location for your 5 speaker Bose Amplifier eaither under one of your seats if the space is available or somewhere in your hatch area, trunk. Make sure that you use the correct Gauge wires for the power connections, they shouldnt be anymore than 12 Gauge in most cases. Do not try to power the Bose speakers with another amp or you will blow the speakers instantly. I cant tell you how to modify or customize all your work to make this happen, this is something that only I could do if I was present with the vehicle, this is something you have to know how to do or get an installer to do it, the problem is that most stereo shops will not do that type of work, most places will eaither tell you to take a hike or they will throw you an outrageous price to do the job just to scare you away and get rid of you.

Good luck my friend and let me know what happens.

Please Help ....i have Bose Acoustimass 10, 5.1 system connected
Usually the LFE out is only a line out and is not amplified in any way, so first of all is your subwoofer self amplified or not? Cause if not, the LFE output won't be of much use to you. So if it's not self amplified you need an new amplifier to put between the receiver and the subwoofer. Any amp that supports RCA line-in input will do. Even a car stereo amplifier will work provided you can get a 12volt power supply to run it in the house. If the subwoofer is self amplified though, then all you need is to make an adapter cause none are readily available in stores to go from a RCA connector to 2 wires. You can buy a virgin RCA connector that you can wire yourself at The Source, Circuit City, or any electronics store you have locally, or if you have an old RCA to RCA wire you don't need anymore, you can just cut it in half, strip the 2 wires and you got you adapter right there.
