#139 of 220 2000 Avalon rear deck speaker JBL sub woofer by bushman26 Nov 13, 2006 (6:56 pm)
The JBL sub woofer located under the rear shelf needs to be replaced. Toyota wants $260 for the speaker. I spoke to an individual at Crutchfield confirmed that I'm being raped. He checked his offerings and much more powerful subwoofers but none that would conform to the JBL in my Avalon. Has anyone else had this problem and how was it solved?

#140 of 220 Re: CD stuck in CD Changer [bwia] by bwia Nov 18, 2006 (5:03 pm)
Replying to: bwia (Sep 17, 2006 7:37 am) Update: My laissez-faire attitude paid off after all. For two months I pondered whether spending all that money to replace the CD changer made sense. But yesterday the changer spit out the stuck CD's just like that.   For some reason the fix turned out to be quite simple. The service manager simply pressed the load and eject button simultaneously, and Voila, two CDs came out stuck together. And the best part, it did not cost me a dime. Now I am all smiles listening to my favorite music.
#141 of 220 Sirius Radio Install by avalondoug Dec 20, 2006 (7:36 pm)
Has anyone installed the system on their Avalon? I've got a 2005 XLS with the JBL Sat.ready radio and I'm looking at installing Sirius system. Replies to this message: b1gator (Jan 25, 2007 1:48 pm)
#142 of 220 Wiring diagram for standard head unit by smith1 Dec 31, 2006 (6:40 am)
Can anybody point me to a wiring diagram for the standard (not JBL) headunit in the 2005-07 Avalon? I'd like to add a subwoofer and am wondering if preamp-level outs and a remote power lead are available on the standard head unit -- or if not, what are the pinouts for the speakers so I can use speaker-level signals.   Thanks.

The Guy at bestbuy told me that this would work. Any suggestions for my 98 avalon. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=320066048233&ssPageName=MERCO- SI_VI_ROSI_PR4_PCN_BIX_Stores&refitem=320064429944&itemcount=4&refwidgetloc=clos- ed_view_item&refwidgettype=osi_widget Replies to this message: smith1 (Jan 03, 2007 8:03 am) johns0968 (Jan 03, 2007 4:01 pm)

Replying to: johns0968 (Jan 02, 2007 4:28 pm) No doubt the OEM sub is junk, but given that this one sells for only $10-15 (etronics etc.) it can't be much better. But it can't hurt to try it out -- if it doesn't fit or sounds bad you're not out much money. Replies to this message: johns0968 (Jan 03, 2007 4:01 pm)

Replying to: smith1 (Jan 03, 2007 8:03 am) Alright thanks man i guess i am going to go for it. I'm nervous about the installation tho. I am not to familiar with audio systems. Like i know how they work but not much on installation or maintenance. But i was able to figure out how to pop the cover off and measure the sub, i was proud. ha. but thanks again.
#146 of 220 Adding a subwoofer to non-JBL system by smith1 Jan 05, 2007 (8:05 am)
My impression of the stereo in my new Avalon XL is that it is pretty decent, just lacking in really low bass. There is too much boomy mid-bass, but it can be tamed with the bass control.   I would appreciate hearing anyone's experiences with adding a subwoofer to the 2005+ Avalon. I'm leaning towards an Infinity Basslink in the trunk as the simplest route, but will consider other options. I don't need window-rattling bass, I just want to clearly hear the lowest notes in my music. Any insights welcome, e.g.   --How difficult is it to remove the head unit and tap into the speaker wires? (I'm assuming the standard head unit doesn't have line outs --??)   --Is there an existing hole in the firewall that can be used to pass a power lead from the battery, or does a new hole have to be drilled?   --What's the best way to run wiring from the head unit to the trunk?   --Did you have to put a hole/grille in the rear shelf to get enough bass in the cabin?   Thanks in advance for any information!

#147 of 220 MP3 Player Adapter by johni Jan 12, 2007 (6:32 pm)
Does anyone know of an mp3 player (non-ipod) adapter, hard wire not through FM, that works on 2005 Avalon w/ nav? I don't need integration with the factory unit. I just want to play mp3 music through the sound system. Thanks. Replies to this message: smith1 (Jan 15, 2007 7:52 am)

Replying to: johni (Jan 12, 2007 6:32 pm) This is the only one I've seen that claims to work in vehicles with nav.....kind of pricey though.   http://www.logjamelectronics.com/soundlexaux.html
