meade916 Posted January 18, 2017 Report Share Posted January 18, 2017 I am so excited about my latest purchase, i had to post about it BEFORE i even have it. I want and need this deck so bad i jumped up on @SonicElectronix and ordered it....from my own damn banner haha (up top). Why do i "need" a new deck? Well i am making some changes lately. If you have been following my posts, you may have seen the ipad pro dash mod i am doing in the Tahoe. It's 13" of pure Ipad sexyness. Going from a dull, old (but good) 10.2" VGA screen that is 10 years old (Shown behind it), this is going to be amazing! But i need something to run the ipad. My old Pioneer deck down below still works fine, but it is way outdated. Also, the biggest issue is that i have been spoiled with the Optical cable (From my Mac Mini) and i don't want to go back. Very few single din head units out there have an optical out. Having a USB In is also needed in my case (for the ipad). This thing has it all! To make a long story short, i chose this. I will post pics when i get the real thing. I hope to get it tomorrow! Oh and don't let the simplicity fool you...i will be able to run all the functions THROUGH the ipad (an app). This thing is gonna be so sick!! Oh and don't ever confuse this thing with Sony Xplode. If you want to compare it to something, and you are old enough to do so, compare it to Sony Mobile ES, but BETTER.

Brandon Justice Posted January 18, 2017 Report Share Posted January 18, 2017 I remember the old ES series...even when they tried to have an in-dash Mini Disc. The high end Sony HU's had/have some decent specs. I miss my old Alpine CDA-7844 though. Someone wanted it bad enough out of my 98 Eclipse to break the shift knob back then.

ShadeTreeMechanic Posted January 18, 2017 Report Share Posted January 18, 2017 They had a DAT player back in the day that I wanted to replace my tape deck. Bass would make a CD skip and DAT looked like the solution, but the price never came down enough. Thank goodness for USB.

06RTCharger Posted January 18, 2017 Report Share Posted January 18, 2017 Oh damn, finally gonna get to see that HU in action! I was between that Sony or the pioneer 99. Went with the 99, i couldnt let go of CD's lol. Are you gonna be showcasing that classy HU or mount it behind the ipad???? Showcasing it somehow would be dope. New huge ass ipad, AND the new sony HI Res HU. Cant wait to see the vids. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beanz Posted January 19, 2017 Report Share Posted January 19, 2017 Man the price of that unit is so cheap u could have bought two (jk) that does look beastly from what the specs are showing Quote That's why they don't deliver. Yer ass better go sit along the side of the road and wait. You can't expect them to travel up some dirt road in a hick / back woods town. Thats how horror movies start I explain things very simply and use analogies in terms of Pickles, and grape drink, pool noodles and jackhammers...if you can't put 2 and 2 together there man, There simply is not much more I can do.
