I just picked up my Denali, and man do I miss my old SLT stereo.  The new one has the Bose Premium Sound, but it lacks the bass of my '19 SLT.  Where is the subwoofer located for the '22?

You have a radio right mjones? Then you have an antenna. It's built into the satellite antenna on the roof.

Just the Sirius antenna in the shark fin on the top of the truck. I do not have a terrestrial radio antenna. Excuse me for not being more specific for your liking.

People still listen to the regular radio? With IHeartRadio, Pandora, Amazon music my radio is just a sound system. My phone is my radio. Before that I used my iPods. Before that CDs, cassettes, 8 trac

I'm almost 100% positive. There is rumors of one in the AT4x and Denali Ultimate, but no confirmation.

Yes, there is a sub with all BOSE.  The AT4x and Denali Ultimate get some more speakers. Someone had posted radio info from GM on this not long ago, can't find it.   As for the sound quality, I also came from a 2019 BOSE to the new 2022 refresh BOSE.  I agree, the 2019 was better.  A few things... make sure if you are listening via your bluetooth phone, and android auto be sure you adjust the EQ on your phone. Also,  I use YouTube music for everything. I found that listening to YouTube music direct from the build in truck app OS, vs YouTube music via my phone (android auto) the sound quality is much better going directly with the truck OS YouTube music.

Care to share a picture of it or proof of it's location? I've been under the console of my 2022 LTZ refresh with Bose and there isn't a sub there. I have the UQA RPO code on my truck.

UQA Bose Sound System, premium 7-speaker system with Richbass woofer

 

 

'22 refresh, standard on Denali Ultimate and AT4X, not available on others

UQS Bose Premium Series with 12-speaker system with CenterPoint, Richbass woofer and AudioPilot

I'd like to know where the 7th speaker is located on the UQA option. I don't have a 7th speaker in my refresh LTZ with the UQA option.

 

Crutchfield doesn't show the Bose trucks having a 7th speaker. However, they do show the Denali Ultimate and AT4x having multiple other speakers including in the a-pillar.s

Can't help you with location, but the chev' order guide has the same description wording for UQA as the sierra.

Then it is wrong. There are not 7 speakers.

I'd guess Crutchfield is wrong and GM is right....

Nope. I've had my 2022 refresh LTZ with UQA Bose completely tore apart. There is not a 7th speaker.

Did you remove the console?

 

 

Yup, had the console out of the truck and no speaker under it.

Could it be under the dash?

      Vehicle Payments

      This is interesting. My quote tagged here is different from my original quote. After I’m driving them longer. That isn’t me. I don’t talk that way. I definitely wouldn’t express myself that way. Interesting.

      What have you done to your K2 today?

      By UrbanRage · Posted

      I have the same running boards on my truck and I do agree they are bulky. I also find myself stepping over them when getting in and out of the truck. Besides providing protection to the rocker panels, they aren't very useful.  I will be replacing them soon with the Amp Powersteps.

      Vehicle Payments

      By ChristopherDobson · Posted

      Monthly payment is only part of the equation. With today's prices and interest rates, I'd look at the total monthly cost: payment, insurance, registration, fuel, maintenance, and expected repairs. A vehicle that fits comfortably into your budget is usually the better choice than stretching for a higher trim. I've also kept my vehicles longer over the past few years. New cars have gotten expensive enough that driving one for 10+ years, while staying on top of maintenance, often ends up being the most cost-effective approach.

      OCI, not when but why?

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      10 Ford and Chevy engines proven to reach 300,000 miles   You may note a common 3K OCI on this list of gas motors. I skipped over the diesels. Dh'O.

      Gasser Subforum Has Been Quiet - - So, Regenerative Braking and Using L10

      By jake111 · Posted

      Thanks newdude!  By the time manual selection is needed, I'm probably too much of a control-freak to depend on the transmission sensing braking to activate automatic downshifting.  I would be anticipating the situation and already be manually downshifting.   This truck replaced a 2004.5 LLY diesel with the Allison 5-speed.  Putting it in T/H made noticeable differences (when the torque converter locked, upshift points, downshift behavior).  On this 2024 gasser with the 10L1000 I haven't been able to detect much, if any, difference.  Ok, I can never tell now when the torque converter locks up.  But I also don't notice differences in shifting.  For downhills, I've probably already manually downshifted by then anyway.  Since it's also more awkward (than the 2004.5) to engage/disengage I don't even bother.  Or maybe it doesn't really matter with just a 3k lb. camper in the bed?   Thanks also for the list of reasons the charging system might select various voltages.  However, what I am seeing doesn't fall into any of those categories.  It very definitely, and very consistently, rises after coasting/braking.  Maybe not immediately, but not very long after coasting/braking.  Very consistently drops voltage when no longer coasting/braking.  It might also be interacting with the camper battery charging (I might disconnect the camper and see if it changes the charging behavior).  I also need to recheck turning on headlights for when I want to force it to charge the camper.   Another JR, in June I converted the camper to LiFePO4.  Since it's not a good idea to try to charge lithiums directly using truck, I installed a Victron Orion XS DC-DC charger (which BTW is AMAZING!!).  Being cheap, I only had to buy that one item (besides the battery, of course) to do the conversion.  The camper OEM 120v battery charger (only 19 years old and works perfectly) and the truck feed the input to the DC-DC charger (not at the same time).  But I didn't want the camper charger feeding back to the truck so I kept the old separator.  I considered replacing the separator with a 30amp diode but that means more work and might add another 1/2 volt drop.  One thing that surprised me was the voltage drop over the long 10awg wire run, so I can only charge smoothly at 8 amps (because the DC-DC charger is completely configurable).  Another reason I don't want an added voltage drop with the diode.  I might also be a little lazy but all this work is being done under the sink with a small cabinet opening.
