DGold Posted June 29, 2009 Report Share Posted June 29, 2009 I've been searching through head units for the last 3-4 days. Looking to see what you guys have experienced. I've been reading alot of the reviews as well. Here's what I know I want. CD/MP3 and AAC readable if possible. Ipod USB/Aux ports (front and rear preferably) 3 Sets of Preamps 4v potentially. Around 20w RMS *Question here, if i run a separate amp for the door speakers, does the RMS of the HU matter? Flip out would be very nice but not really needed because I would like to keep the price under 400 and I don't think any quality ones would be for this price. Could be wrong but I've yet to see it. Cloest ones I have seen to what I want are the pioneer premiers but even though the pioneer i have now has lasted a good 6-7 yrs, Im looking for a good sound quality HU Will add more once I think of it.

DGold Posted July 2, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 2, 2009 I love Pioneer was just more about seeing whats all out there. The premier seems to be the one that has everything I'm looking for. Anyone have one of these? I dont think Pioneer has bad SQ didnt mean for it to come out like that lol Old Setup 03 DurangoRF Power T1 6.5 CompsMids/Highs Amp: AQ4x90Sub Amp: AQ 3500.1DSubs: 2 DC XL 18sBox: 12ft^3 tuned to 33HzMechman 270 Amp AltXS 6500XS 3100 x2 Highest Score to date: 151.2 db @ Headrest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DGold Posted July 13, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 13, 2009 Was thinking about it and having a good shuffle function would also be nice. Not one that just skips to the next song, but completely random.

DGold Posted July 13, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 13, 2009 Is it true that the Pioneers preamps pick up noise easily? The one I've had for a long time doesnt seem to, and if it does its not noticable.

DGold Posted July 15, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 15, 2009 Any opinons on this? My concern is the pre amps picking up noise or being bad quality but it seems to have everything feature wise i want. Unless I can find a similar one with 2 usb ports on the back and just the aux upfront. http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_17693_...DEH-P510UB.html Old Setup 03 DurangoRF Power T1 6.5 CompsMids/Highs Amp: AQ4x90Sub Amp: AQ 3500.1DSubs: 2 DC XL 18sBox: 12ft^3 tuned to 33HzMechman 270 Amp AltXS 6500XS 3100 x2 Highest Score to date: 151.2 db @ Headrest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
