Hello all. Has anyone had any problems with the speakers? My drivers side door speaker is touch and go if it wants to work and upon reporting it to the dealer at the 1200 mile service, I was told it could not be looked at until the next service as it was a 'sound system issue'. Now the passenger side door speaker is doing the same. Anyone else with the same problem or any solution suggestions?

First thing to do is tell your dealer to get their arse into gear and sort it now, that's appalling service !

+1! wtf are they on about?
The way the speakers are wired is beyond belief. Do you lose all sound or just from one speaker at at a time?
BTW - i'm getting my Bose system upgraded (it's truly rubbish - those placing orders save your money. I'll post photos of the speakers when i get my car back and you'll wonder where your money went) and the guys at Audio Advice are having no end of problems with doing the upgrade.The positioning of one of the amps ridiculous too.
I went to visit Audio Advice on Saturday and saw my car in bits, and saw all the bits, and it's a joke of an audio install. They said they have never worked with anything like it in all their years. As great as the car is, the Bose sound system is poor. I've asked them to do a write up as they are now by far and away one of (if not the) most experienced car audio installers when it comes to the GTR. I'll post it here too when it's done.

Not the best write up. I kinda rushed it. Any questions fire away.
I'm off to Leeds right now, and get my car back next week with new Sub in and the gain turned up and eq tweaked (it's currently flat) So it should start rocking. Then Phil will come over from NI to do the final set up. Then it will be :thumbsup:
I had a real problem with losing sound in the left speakers of my Bose in my old 350z and found that giving the head unit a thump often seemed to deal with it. I think there was an intermittently loose connection and the dealer could never replicate the problem whenever it was in for a service or a check (after the warranty expired I just gave up). The weird thing was it only ever affected CD's rather than the radio.
I really hope my GTR won't be as temperamental. The Bose definitely sounds a lot better in the GTR, the subwoofer in the 350z was just ridiculous and sounded crap unless you are the type that likes to play drum and bass at ear-splitting volumes whilst waiting at traffic lights
