Go look around the Miata.net garage there is stuff on changing out the Bose system.

I was in Best Buy (Mesquite) earlier this week and they had Infinity Kappa component speakers for $135 per pair. I have the Infinity Reference components and they are much better than two-way speakers.
In all honesty I'd go for a non-Bose factory deck from the same year to avoid the top cutting thief problem.
eBay is your friend for speakers.

I have full coverage o deduct so I am getting a good system
Just replace it yourself. Replacing a car stereo is replacing a car stereo. Doesn't matter if it's Bose or not. It's not like they use some crazy new technology that's unheard of and difficult to understand. It's wires and speakers just like anything else.
Next to changing your oil, car audio is probably one of the easiest DIY jobs you can do.
It does on the Miata. The OEM Bose system has its amps on the speakers or some weird setup like that. Not a 'normal' setup at all. If you're replacing everything then I don't think it matters.Quote:

Don't tell my car this. I ran a Pioneer Premier DEH 740 in my car for 3.5 years with the original Bose speakers. Never had an issue with the stereo or the speakers. The unit is 5 years old now and still kicking.Quote:
