Make sure you get a CD player with pre-outs though if thats how your amp connects (RCA ports). If not, which it may not since you have the bose, and your amp has pre-ins (i guess? RCA Inputs is what I mean), then I would recomend switching over to that. Its not difficult, just running the cables from your head unit to where ever the amp is... quick trick would be to tape the old wires to the new ones and pull. I'll take pics and send them if you need help... its hard to explain without them.
