Skyfall Posted April 1, 2015 Report Posted April 1, 2015 Looking for a decent head unit for 150-175, doesn't need to look fancy or anything. 3v+ pre amp. I don't need DVD/CD. Also what is the best way to listen to music Bluetooth, USB,aux?
all4spl Posted April 1, 2015 Report Posted April 1, 2015 Save up a little more and get a Pioneer DEH-80PRS and you are set with one of the best if not the best single din headunit on the market. They can be purchase on ebay starting at $250. Retired from SPL again.... 2016 IASCA Truck/Trunk 2 Champion 151.8db 2016 IASCA Truck/Trunk 2 World Record Holder
Skyfall Posted April 1, 2015 Author Report Posted April 1, 2015 I've seen that model recommended alot here, what makes it stand out so much?
all4spl Posted April 1, 2015 Report Posted April 1, 2015 It has more features and bang for the buck than ANYTHING else made right now. Alpine seems to have forgotten single din units and has focused in on double dins, while also straying away from making super feature packed headunits. The CDA-9887 was their last flagship single din, and kenwood/sony/clarion are all in the same boat, they simply decided to get out of making a feature packed single din for people who want to be on the top end in a single din headunit. http://www.pioneerelectronics.com/PUSA/Car/CD-Receivers/DEH-80PRS I don't want to list every feature so take a look yourself here ^ .

Skyfall Posted April 1, 2015 Author Report Posted April 1, 2015 I'll definitely be looking into it. Would it be uncommon if that was the most expensive unit in my car out of my amp and subs? Lol
all4spl Posted April 1, 2015 Report Posted April 1, 2015 A little secret some people fail to learn early on and end up spending WAY too much is, don't by stuff to get you by, save up and buy quality stuff from the beginning.

rockFord_Expedition Posted April 1, 2015 Report Posted April 1, 2015 regardless of the listening method like CD BT aux or whatever, the quality of the file has alot to do with it. Many retailers have filters to narrow down your search. Narrow it down to 3 or 4 then look for reviews Old School/New School RF Build March 2015 SOTM Winner How to crimp large wire
