Heres my dilema. I have a wall of 4 12's and it is skipping my sony cdplayer.  its actually one of the highest sonys available and it still skips.  I need to know if i should buy a new head unit (a better one)  ( i was thinkin maybe PIONEER PREMIER DEH-P880PRS) or get a mp3 player.  the pioneer would be more expensive but would probably have better sound quality.  i also dont think it would skip like my sony. tell me what you guys think.

you lose a lot of bass with an MP3 player IMO

1 word, MEADE! all those vids u see Meade beat'n down da block....that was off of a 80gb Apple. if ur sounds are up to par then they are up to par and it doesnt matter.

a cd plays at ~1411 kb/s when an mp3 plays at 320kb/s max...there is tremendous SQ loss when using an mp3...they are able to compress by eliminating sounds the human ear cannot hear, such as frequencies below ~25hz

new setup in the works

Ive never notice loss of bass with mp3s, but have with mids and highs. Guess I need to start buying CDs again instead of burning dvd mp3 disks

If you wire it up the right way, not using fm modulator bs, it will sound near if not better than cd's.  I love the IPOD in the car, ill never go back to cd's.

What u mean wire it right and not the fm modulator? Are u refering to the ipod hook-ups that u can buy for the aftermarket radios.....this is the one I was gonna get for my KVT http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_4785.html
