    It seems like it is tuned properly, just almost no bass and very low power.

    Hey Charlie. Just thought I'd add a little something for you and/or those who would maybe like to improve their Bolt 6 speaker system for not much money and zero modifications. I did this for my Bolt EV (2023) and I'm super happy with the results. Short answer? I personally installed 4 Sound Matrix Inspirit plug and play speakers. I feel they make a huge difference. That's the short version.
    More on this. Back in 2018 I had a Buick Encore with the standard 6 speaker system and was not happy with it. Searching the internet, I found a video on here on removing the door panels for a Chevy Trax (similar to my Buick). Watching it, I noticed they were installing upgraded speakers and that's how I came upon the Soumatrix/Sound Matrix speakers. I got them for a very reasonable price on Amazon and installed them myself. Now, if I can do that, nearly anyone can. The speakers literally come in a bracket and look exactly like the factory speakers. The hardest part for me was removing the door panels and re-installing them. Once you get the door panel off, there's only one screw to remove, pop the factory speaker out, unplug it, plug the Sound Matrix speaker in and replace into the same factory spot. Then put the screw back in and you are done.
    I won't go on about it, but I'm impressed enough that every time I trade in my car I remove them and put them in my new car (providing it's a GM).

      I appreciate you mentioning this! I will look into swapping them out, as I was already considering it. Maybe I'll do a video on it as well. Thank you!

      You are welcome. I'd love to see a review from you with those to see what you think. I'm not silly enough to say that I feel my system sounds as good as some of your A or B tier systems, but I do think it's better than the Bolt's Bose for sure. Last month my car was in for service and they gave me a brand new 2LT with the leather and Bose. Drove it just for that day and connected my phone and listened to some of my favorite songs. To be honest, when I got back in my 1LT with my cloth and Sound Matrix speakers, I liked it more. Also, not sure where you are located, but I'm in the South Bay (near Los Angeles) area. You would always be welcome to test mine.

      @@RVCraig99 If I recall, I ended up getting them off of Amazon. It's kind of a strange thing and it was difficult to find. The company is called Sound Matrix and the speakers are referred to as Soumatrix Inspirit made for specifically some Chevy and Buick models. What I found was that all GM (or most) use the exact same 6.5" speaker with the same mounting and plug. So far, I've put these in my 2018 Encore, then into a 2020 Chevy Spark, then into a 2021 Malibu and now into the 2023 Bolt. So they work and sound great. Good luck and I'll check back soom to see if you have more questions or if you found them.

    Basically if you listen to anything with bass then you will be disappointed but this would probably work great for classical or audio books

    The Bose wasn't worth the money? Respectfully disagree. The Bose package on these makes a huge difference over the stock system. Worth every penny if you care at all about audio. The sunroof, though, not worth it. Sucks that they bundle them together. The same Bose package upgrade is offered on the Trailblazer and Encore GX and it's great. On the Trailblazer, you can actually get it without the sunroof.

    • @DailyMotorSound
      @DailyMotorSound  6 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      Right, what I should have said is the package together wasn't worth both paying $2200 extra plus having to find a dealer with that exact build in stock. I'd have happily paid an extra $1000 max for the Bose. But I bet I can get better sound quality than the Bose system through an aftermarket shop for much less than the package would cost from Chevy.

    • @voodooturbo
      @voodooturbo 6 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      @@DailyMotorSound Yeah that makes sense, don't blame you there. I got it on my GX, only because I wanted the better sound system and cooler wheels. I don't care about a sunroof (although that panoramic is pretty cool, but I have a convertible already for summer). Which is why the Trailblazer packaging is interesting, since it's essentially the same vehicle as the EUV and GX but you can get the Bose separately, not tied to any package.
