Any adive/help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks. Dave | ||

The fiber optic system will not work any longer, you also loose the CD changer in the back and MB phone system, if it was installed. I like to do the same type of an upgrade in the future, also the ML speaker are 2 OHM ones, you need to change out the Amp to work with them or change all the speaker and install new speaker wiring to replace the fiber optic cables.

Looking at a complete speaker change and rewire, but wont be able to use any of the Bose spkrs, have acquired some very good 6ohm spkrs with built-in tweeters & crossovers so might take the plunge and rewire the complete system. Cheers Dave PS. Will let you know how I get on! | ||
