it was actually the sterio and amplifier which is not compatible with bose speaker by default. for full option Acura RSX the player and ampli are also bose and it even beat the sound of Mercedes bose sound system, so in order to work perfectly the crap player should have a crap speaker woofer to pair with. mine is working great with all set to bose by factory default and even my friend have Porsch bose system still eager to have my car audio system.

@Sam – have you tried searching or asking the same question on the Club RSX forums?

I have an ’02 and there are some differences with the 2005 model. Thus, I cannot give you any definitive information. Maybe there are speaker adapters for the rear necessary to make the 6.5 speakers fit. Crutchfield is a good source to determine if an adapter is needed since they have an online fitment tool.

Correct me if I am crazy but I have a 2005 Acura RSX base not type s. The 6.5 inch speakers will not fit in the front or back due to those triangle shapes they got going on with stock. How can you get them to fit? Do you have to cut out some of the metal and/or plastic? Is there a plate you can put over but still keep the stock face plate if not thats ok. I just need help because I installed Alpine type R in front and had to cut a little metal away to fit them because the hole is in a triangle like shape and same in back. I cant get anything to fit in back because of plastice paneling is also shaped similar to a tringle with the speakers flush mounting. The speakers that come with the rsx are 6 inch so that .5 inch os the problem. People tell me they have installed 6.5 inch without a probelm and all the sites tell me they should fit!! Please help!

I purchased an OEM Bose Subs which I’m planning to install to another car. The seller told me that it cam from acura srx. The subs has four terminals/pins, does anyone here who can identify these?

Any help will be surely appreciated.

I purchased the Focal subwoofer back in 2005 for approximately $150. Upgrade was very simple and the bass response is great for a 5.25″ sub. The Focal does an excellent job of supporting the mid-bass and giving it some depth and punch. If you want deeper bass response, then you have to install an 8″ sub or larger.

Was wondering how much was the Focal Sub as well as hooking up the amp.
Was it pretty simple to upgrade and how is the bass.

Let me know.

The Focal subwoofer (if you consider a 5.25″ speaker a subwoofer) is almost a simple drop-in replacement to the Bose subwoofer. The mounting holes did not directly line up with the Focal sub, so I had to create a mounting plate from a thin sheet of plastic. A very simple task.

The only other modification was replacing the factory speaker wire with something of better quality. I’m not a big believer of over-priced speaker wire and interconnects, but the factory wiring should be replaced with something better.

Hey man, great job on that!
I was curious though,, is that Focal 5.25″ woofer a direct replacement and DROP-IN of that Bose woofer??
Was there any modifications you had to do ?
any other help would be great. thanks!
