I have on order a 2009 LTZ (due to arrive end of October) with nav (no DVD) and the Bose 10 speaker Centerpoint system. By all accounts the audio quality is only okay. So I am planning an audio upgrade.
What I am planning is to keep the OEM HU and upgrade all the speakers, and sub with these.
Boston Acoustics Pro60 x 4 (or maybe 6)
JL Audio Stealthbox
JL Audio HD600/4 x 2
Rockford Fosgate 3SIXTY.2 (as I am keeping the OEM amp)
One of the questions I'm pondering is that since the OEM system has a center channel speaker for the simulated 5.1 surround, do I replace that with a component or just forget about that speaker in the dash and just mount two components in the rear. The question arises since after replacing the 4 door speaker and tweeter pairs and using 2 channels (bridged) for the sub, I still have 2 channels to play with. Maybe 6x9's in the back?
Another question is that in this thread (http://www.tahoeforum.com/showthread.php?t=9592) details the amplifier connector to have 7 output channels which are all accounted for in the OEM speaker setup. My question is if anyone knows if the individual output channels are all full frequency or frequency limited by the OEM amp? This relates as to whether channel summing will be needed.
Other planned mods are for VizuaLogic A-1290 Headrest Monitors, Passport 9500ci detector, GMPP CAI, Corsa sport exhaust, and a Blackbear tune.
Cheers.
