Replying to: hunter39 (Jun 11, 2001 2:55 pm) I have the 103 amp in my 2001 LS and my stereo has great sound and performance. I had it replaced over a year ago due to the original amp shorting out and it was replaced with the same amp # 103. The sound quality is excellent. Good deep bass with the setting set two notches positive from center and excellent highs three notches positive from center. Replies to this message: bigjim5 (Nov 07, 2007 5:37 pm)

Replying to: jnt (Jun 02, 2007 4:18 am) I cannot say what the problem with the locked radio is but allow me to give you my insight to GM dealers from years of experience. I know that Warranty's are a crap shoot but when you have a warranty on a GM vehicle, whether factory or extended warranty the dealers do what is required and whatever the repairs are it is paid for. If you don't have a warranty they take you to the cleaners.....   I have never had a purchased extended Warranty from GM dealers that has not paid for itself, whether the repairs are actual, bogus, or pin the tail on the donkey repairs.   I am not condoning extended warranty's but this seems to be the way dealers operate.   Just a side note: MY wife lost her key and key fob to our 2002 Impala. (this is not under warranty)   I called my dealer and they quoted me the following: 1 Key fob - $63.00 1 - Key, non chip type - $7.74 Program new key fob - $40.00.   Bottom line approx. $110.00 to replace a lousy key and key fob.............   I went on line and purchased a key fob for less than $28.00 and programmed myself. I did pay $7.74 for the actual key but approx $35.74 is a far cry from $110.00 if I went to the dealer.   For you anti American car buyers the foreign car dealers are no better...................

Replying to: mote96 (Jan 24, 2007 11:14 pm) I have the same exact issues with my 06 Impala LTZ. The hissing, hiss, or distortion is to me unacceptable. When I buy a vehicle with premium sound I expect just that. Any reasonable person would agree that the amount of distortion in the Bose premium sound system does not fall within the specifications of premium anything.   I have attempted to fix this issue though 2 Chevy dealerships. Each attempt brings no resolution just frustration and them telling me that I’ll just have to deal with it and there is no fix.   This is why I am looking for people with the same problem willing to bring a class action law suit against Chevrolet. All I am after is a replacement radio or a monetary amount to fix the issue myself.   Please contact me via email apeterssegmail.com if you are interested.

Replying to: apetersse (Sep 22, 2007 10:08 am) Hi Andrew,   I am sorry that you are having hiss in your Bose system. I have an '06 Impala SS with the Bose system and it has no hiss or distortion or other problems. The sound quality has been truly premium from day one. I am very happy with it.   Has either of the dealers you went to replaced the amp? If not, I would suggest this is a place to start. There must be a solution to your problem but I am not sure a class action suit is it.

Replying to: apetersse (Sep 22, 2007 10:08 am) Andrew,   Have you had any work done on the stereo in your car? There was a fix for the stereo and I had it performed on my car. While it did improve the problem, it was by no means a real fix. The hiss is still there and the overall sound quality still leaves much to be desired. I actually refrain from listening to much music, especially at higher volume levels because there are certain tones that just seem to resonate through my skull. This doesn't happen with any other stereo, just my "premium" Bose system. I've adjusted my bass, mid, and treble all that I can to try to alleviate the problem but it just doesn't help.   As for a class action suit, it's a great idea in theory but I just don't think there are enough of us. Most of the folks who have shown up on this board either don't have the same problem or don't hear it. The Better Business Bureau may be a better option for us although I've pretty much given up. I will just never buy a Bose product again. Please let us all know if you make any progress.   Thanks, Ron Replies to this message: bugbugbug (Apr 26, 2008 5:27 am) quietpro (Apr 28, 2008 5:15 am)

Replying to: fathertyricius (Sep 07, 2007 3:47 pm) Why did you have to replace your amp? My sound recently died (radio.cd.tape still show as being on) and we are trying to decide if amp replacement in necessary.   Jim
