    Hey all. 2006 9-3 Aero SC. This car’s driver door speakers haven’t worked since I bought the car. It would make a little pop noise when I turned the volume up. Anyways I got around to taking the amp out, y’all ever seen this before?? Looks like the previous owner tried to silicone everything to...

    Hello so I’ve just recently bought a 2010 Saab 9-3x and the audio quality is basically poop, I have a jl audio amp for a subwoofer I plan to install but also want to upgrade the rest of the speakers, does anyone know the power the stock amp can handle or should I just wire in new speakers, I...

    After some researching I’ve come to the conclusion I could probably use some advise... So I’ve fitted a Joying android head unit to my Saab 9-5 2006 1.9 TID model with 7 speakers and the factory amp located under the fuse box on the drivers side (RHD). I believe it’s the AS2 audio setup. The...

    There are two issues I have with the SID: the beeps are too quiet my SID sounds like a crow that's been strangled. Sucks. That's why I came up with this thought...

    I did this a while ago, but figured people would be interested in hearing about it and my experience with it overall. Here's a link to the product page on JBL's site, but it's essentially a spare-tire powered subwoofer, which makes it totally hidden and relatively easy to install. I had...

    Hi guys I have recently purchased the car about a year ago from an owner least to say was careless about everything in the car. Not everyone in Jordan knows how to deal with saab so I went through google and researched how to bypass the Amp1 and here is what I went through in points: • I found...

    Hello, Ive just bought an aftermarket Amp and sub, spent hours yesterday trying to get it to work with the original AMP which is located under the drivers seat. I already had an RCA adpater/Hi Lo converter but I'm not that technically gifted nor as handy as I wish I was so I just gave up. I...

    Forgive me as I know this is a common topic on here but I'm extremely confused. My 05 linear has the 4 speaker system and I'd like to go to the Pick'n'pull and rip out a 7 speaker system including the head unit. Has anyone done this? I would imagine you need a tech 2 to marry the head unit...

    I noticed one of my rear deck speakers was cracking so I bought a used HK replacement online and it makes the same noise. I also have noticed the sound almost sounds like it skips out. Confirmed this is whether the audio is a cd or AUX. Since I've replaced the rear deck speaker already, I'm...

    Hey folks. So I'm helping a guy with an 05 9-3 convertible. The fuse in the dash panel, #14 to be exact, Is sparking when the ICM is hooked up. I've also noticed that the fiber lines don't light up. I took a look at the diagram and learned that the radio amp and the ICM both touch that same...

    A few months ago, the radio/speakers in my 2003 Saab 9-3 started acting up. It would cut out/wouldn't turn on when the car was started but would sometimes come back on. Eventually, it stopped working all together (speakers, turn signals, and display are all out). I did some research of what was...

    I recently purchased an '04 9-3 linear that was told to have "no problems"... well come to find this was not true because my radio, cd player, and turn signals all do not make sound. I looked up all over these forums to find that amp 1 is generally the issue but i purchased a replacement amp 1...

    So I recently passed my test, had a corsa for the first month and I have now treated myself to a Saab 9-3 2005 1.9tid. LOVE the car... HATE the sound but really like the standard stereo with the sat nav and cd changer etc... I joined up as I could not find an answer to the question I had...

    The problem is a very weak sound stage coming from the back when I turn the fader all the way to the rear. The difference is really noticeable as the front is twice, maybe three times as loud as the rear. It's my wife's car and she says it wasn't like this before the stock defective head unit...

  20. 9-3 Sedan, Cabrio '04+, Combi, 9-3X Workshop
    I posted a few weeks ago about the audio issues I was having with my Saab 06' 93, and the general consensus was that my AMP1 needed to be replaced. However, I saw at least one response saying that someone had a similar issue and it was the 6 disc CD changer. Before I go and spend $600 on a new...
