I need some info on perhaps what this stereo is made up of. Any idea what the speakers are? How many? Can I install an amp to drive a small Kenwood sub in the back? Does it have speakers in it?
Thanks!
Thanks!
Yes it is possible to do so. In fact, I have a '17 QX30 Premium with the Tech Pkg, and even though it came with the Bose speakers all around and a factory Bose Sub+Amp from I added a small 8" Phoenix Gold Subwoofer and amplifier. And, "Oh boy" does it sound amazing! I wasn't going for anything which would ultimately make my rear wipers rattle, but wanted to feel the bass when listening to music. The acoustics of the QX30 are excellent for smaller subwoofer enclosures. Trust me, you'll be blown away!
Now I´m realizing that you have Bose Sound system (I have ordinary sound system), so probably you have only amplified your new sub Signal. I tried to amplify the complete signal to the speakers (all of them)... this could be the keyHi philloliveira, haven´t you had problems with the active noise cancellation system of our car and the amplifier?
How do you do it?
I Installed an amplifier, and at first (with the car in the mechanich´s garage) it was great... but when I started to drive, It produced an extra loud noise coming form the speakers that was directly related with the engine RPM.
We did´nt found the way to avoid it, so We finally had to uninstall the amplifier![]()
know this is a long shot as this forum is old but if u see this how did you do this did you splice into factory sub connection to get sound through amp?Yes it is possible to do so.

The AV Control Unit sends 2 channel audio to the Bose Amplifier. You can probably tap into that to get Left/Right channel audio. Fading is implemented in the Bose Amp and is handled through digital communications you can't easily use.know this is a long shot as this forum is old but if u see this how did you do this did you splice into factory sub connection to get sound through amp?
(Pin 1) Orange = Subwoofer +So looking at the factory harness that plugs into the bose subwoofer are you aware of which wire colors i should splice into the left/right channel outputs ? i have a cheap loc to test until i get a more quality one
How did you wire your amp and where did you run it to to get sound ??Yes it is possible to do so.
