00_XJ Posted December 28, 2008 Report Share Posted December 28, 2008 I'm on a tight budget and the face on my Kenwood is cutting in and out so I need a new head unit. What do you guys think is the best head unit for under 150? Preferbably with an Aux. and/or USB port. I was looking at the lower end eclipses but none have Aux. or USB ports. I'd like to stay away from Pioneer simply because I heard the RCA's are crappy and need to be grounded and I see no purpose in buying a head unit that has problems from the factory.

bigbodylexus Posted December 28, 2008 Report Share Posted December 28, 2008 Have you looked at Sony? I personally have always used Pioneer (I have an in dash DVD player right now) I have never had a problem with them.

kentb Posted December 28, 2008 Report Share Posted December 28, 2008 the newer pioneers doesn't show much of the ground issue, but still if it shows, it will only take about 10 mins of your time to ground the RCA's. pioneer FTW if you're on a budget Quote New System 2 10" Fi SSD, Sundown 1500d Build I build and design enclosures(cheap price), PM ME Kicker L7 Navigator(plexiglass, fiberglass, aeroport) Build BTL 18" Escalade(plexiglass, battery tray) Build http://www.kentbaudio.com Old System Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
