Sup everyone. I'm new to this so bare with me. I purchased a black 07 Avalanche LS without Bose and Navigation. I upgraded my stock radio for the nav unit #15882767. I purchased the unit on Ebay for $750.00 Brand New and it works great but after the install my speakers are playing very low. When I raise the volume, it only goes to a certain volume. The dealer installed it and flashed the unit twice but there's no difference. The dealer said that he's gonna check with GM to see if I can get a Bose Amp and get back with me. Does anyone have this issue when upgrading their stock radio. Can I just get another amp in replace of the factory amp to amplify my volume and also my OnStar voice promp is very low, is this all a part of the same issue? Anyone please help......

the navi unit is ment for bose speakers... the navi unit puts out either a high signal or a low signal to the speakers... meaning you will have to bypass the factory amp... or get a special wiring harness... im not sure if you understand what im saying... if not message back and ill explain more...

Ok. I understand about the amp but what's the wiring harness and which do you prefer? Everything works except for that.

all You have to do, is to buy and install any aftermarket 4 channel amplifier and buy non XM IPOD harness from American international ($15) and do a little modification to it. and then Your system will sound as good or better then factory BOSE set up

What would the non XM IPOD harness do? What do you mean by modify it?
