Kenwood Deck


Recommended Posts

Posted

Tired of the pioneer rca problem, guys at the local shop believe its the H/U. So i have been looking around for a head unit with 3 4V Rca outs. And I think i have found the one. Anyone ever have good experience with this H/U. Want to make sure before i request the paypal cash.

You do know the pioneer rca ground loop is an easy fix right? Piece of wire to the chasis of the radio and one to the RCA's(the outter part)...

The 492 is a good unit though, it is last years model.

yeah i had the same prob with pioneer. But we carry kenwood at my shop and i have never had any problems out of them and the rca voltage is true to the specs. I think the 492 is a good unit for the money.

Yah we carry kenwood also(actually america's oldest kenwood dealer), I was just trying to save him some money. Truthfully I'll never go back to having a pioneer premier deck after having eXcelon in my car.

I just went through the same shit. Went through 3 pioneer decks and swapped to the kenwood and its dead silent. Get the kenwood kdc-x592. Same price and features Just the newer model and looks better.

Thanks for all the input. I am going to try to ground all my Rca's with some speaker wire to the chassis. If that doesnt work than ill give that Excelon Kdc-x592. The one Zade showed looks good and its got the voltage i want.
