Connecting replacement stereo with Bose amplifier help?
Hi...I have a 2002 911 Carrera, which came with the factory-installed Bose upgraded audio system (no navigation system).
The display on the Becker CDR-220 died (apparently a common issue) so I decided to simply get a new stereo installed...a Pioneer MVH-X580BS.
My question is...one place is saying I need a "4-Channel Line Output Converter" (a PAC LP5-4) in order to continue using the Bose amplifier...whereas another place is saying I do not, since the new stereo will have 6 RCA preamp outputs on the back.
Does anyone have any firsthand knowledge or which is correct??
Thanks so much for your help-
Robert

You should consider contacting CAI.
https://cai-store.com
They'll have all the proper wiring harnesses to connect your new Pioneer HU to the existing system.
Be thankful it's not the MOST based Bose.
