good single din HU


Recommended Posts

so instead of getting another battery i decided to get a new HU. i currently have a 3 year old sony explode and neadless to say it blows major dick. im just lookin for some ideas of decent units for $200 and under. really i dont need that many feauters, i already have a clarion eq. i would like a phase option but its not needed. and really thats it. o and it has to be somehow ipod capable. thanks guys. and blue illuminated if poissible (blue theme throughout my car)

Not sure if they still have it or not, but you can check out the Pioneer 6200bt. Great price and seemed to have some good features. I was going to pick this up for my wagon, but would like to do the whole system, and just dont have that type of money right now.

I've got a JVC Arsenal KD-AHD69...about $150 depending where you buy it. 5 volt pre-outs, though only 2 sets of them, USB interface w/iPod control, a really slick Burr Brown DAC (look it up), and a tri-color LED faceplate that lets it match any color scheme.

'Arsenal' is JVC's premium line- think Kenwood Excelon or Pioneer Premier. It's definitely a solid radio- the quality coming from a USB-connected iPod is amazing, and the internal amp isn't bad at all. One thing I like about it over some other radios is that it actually charges the iPod when it's plugged in- overall I'm very happy with it.

wow thats actully reallycool to know. and on to a dumb question. the reason my im getting a new radio is becuase my sony seems to clip even at low volume levels. can tht be because its old and falling apart? or i wont know untill i hook up a o scope to it?

Nope old sony hu's tend do that whats the model number? If it has a d-bass function then the clipping should be from that

Kenwood KDC-BT945U is the deck I installed on my girls jeep. has nice functions, plus the built in blue-tooth was a nice touch.
