Hi guys,

does anyone know if you have a normall stock delco radio CD and trade it for a monsoon unit if you get into trouble?
Maybe speaker problems orso?

Thanks for replies.

 

I believe the only difference between the Monsoon and Delco headunits used between 1997 and 2002 is the "Monsoon" and "Delco" lettering. If I'm not mistaken if you had the Monsoon lettering on the headunit then you had the Monsoon speakers as well. The two should be interchangealbe. Probably the only problem you will run into, if any,is that the Monsoon headunit you are switching in may require a password to unlock it if it is relocated.That will be cause by Theftlock. You can always go to a Chevy service department and they will unlock it for $50-$60, or if you go here: http://www.corvetteradios.com/corvetteradios_009.htmit shows you how to unlock it yourself, it costs about $26 for them to give you the unlock code.

 

monsoon is of higher quality. Its a bad *** brand. if your trying to switch out head units id sugget going aftermarket or stick with monsoon.

 

the unit is theft lock free so no problems there.
im just not sure what Monsoon stands for, i know that the monsoon units came with 6 or 8 speakers (maybe more?) and my conv. has only 4 speakers, 2 frond and 2 rear.
The output of a monsoon goes to 6 (or more) speakers, the connectorplug is the same as my old one.
Isnt it possible that my 4 speakers wil "overload" and break?

 

you guys........ monsoon is like the bose from 93-96
nothing is interchangable and the speakers are all f-ed up ohms... with each individual amp [:@]

 

there are two amps that each power two speakersand monsoon is an upgrade from bose.

 

my bose puts my monsoon to shame so what are you talking about.

 

what have you done to your system over stock? Monsoon is a better component than bose believe me..

 

Bose speakers are interchangable with Monsoon speakers. I swapped out the two Monsoon speakers in my backseat with my brother's old Bose speakers. The rear seat Bose speakers sound better than the rear seat Monsoon speakers...bigger magnets. Cars with the Monsoon system have 6 speakers, 2 in the front, two in the back seat, and two in the trunk area.

Theres some information on here that may or may not help you: http://www.z28.com/forum/showthread.php?t=64468

 

If I decided to replace the monsoon cd changer with an aftermarket alpine stereo do I have to rewire the ENTIRE speaker system to get new speakers in?
