What is your media source?

It is noticeable on Aux, BT, or AM/FM. Less so on CD and USB/iPod. CenterPoint helps as it EQ's the speakers heavily and individually to masked the harshness.

I have a 2016 CX-5 grand touring with Bose system. I tried tapping into the brown and green w white stripe wires for my loc but they must have changed the color coding on the wires for 2016. I have a brown wire but with a white stripe and I do have a green with white stripe on the top third plug. I tapped into those wires but all I get is a electronic pulsating noise thru my subwoofer. I took the door panel off and tapped into the door speaker plug ( just for testing ) and the subwoofer worked. Anybody know which wires I need to tap into on the third plug of the Bose amp on a 2016 CX-5 ?

equipment: capacitor, LC2I(high low converter, it needs 12v power and ground), Amp and two subs.
1. run the power wire from the battery to connect capacitor ground to the trunk.
2. run power from the capacitor to power L2CI ground to the trunk(same point as the cap).
3. run power from capacitor to amp, ground same point as the cap.
4. tap into Sub wires in the back, connect LC2I. Run RCA wire to the amp.
5. LC2I has remote output to turn on everything and run that wire to the amp.(Done)
6. final: wire clean up.......
