hzsogood Posted October 14, 2010 Report Share Posted October 14, 2010 Buying my first one, but dont know a ton about whats good. Ive been looking at the JVC Arsenal AVX 830 , the Pioneer 4200 or any otheroptions available that are good, with a great Iphone interface Are there any big specials that come around on the higher end stuff like a Z120 or anything aroung black friday or the holdays? I saw on Amazon the Z 120 was $899 shipped.. If there are deals like that Ill wait, but if not I wanna keep it Under $600 for BT, a descent preout, and a good IP4 interface Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EclipseChris Posted October 15, 2010 Report Share Posted October 15, 2010 Don't feel like reading. All i have to say is Alpine iva's are amazing. Just avoid the earlier models like the iva w200/205.

Berto Posted October 15, 2010 Report Share Posted October 15, 2010 I like the Clarion units. I had one and it was a real good unit and easy to work with. I would have still had it if it didn't mess up during an car accident I was in. Quote TEAM FLEX ISSUES Car: 1985 Oldsmobile Delta 88 Royal 24" Rims HU: 7" Carputer, Planet Audio EQ, iPhone.

hzsogood Posted October 15, 2010 Author Report Share Posted October 15, 2010 I looked at clarion but wasn't to Impressed. For true multimedia/ ip interface. It seems to be alpine, pioneer and oddly jvc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robert8252 Posted October 15, 2010 Report Share Posted October 15, 2010 My brother just installed the pioneer 4200 in his truck last weekend. I like it a lot from what I've played with it. iPod features worked great and the sound quality is pretty good. 4v preouts and 7 band eq. More than most double dins offer that go for twice the price. He got his from sonicelectronix for 400 shipped Quote 2013 F150 Crew Cab Old Build Log Feedback 2013 F150 Equipment - Some Awesome Stereo Sound Making Stuff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hzsogood Posted October 15, 2010 Author Report Share Posted October 15, 2010 Yea in my op I mentioned that was one I was looking at. But the jvc has 5v preouts, Bluetooth and all iPod hookups with a great interface ( which is why I said "oddly jvc is in the mix ) with it while they are options only on the pioneer Check out the jvc 830. It really is nice for the price especially when it drops to $399 like it does on occasion. I'm really holding off for the pioneer z120 hoping it will drop like it did a month or so ago on amazon for $899 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
n8ball2013 Posted October 15, 2010 Report Share Posted October 15, 2010 I have a kenwood ddx516 in my malibu. Its actually got a surprisingly nice interface but can be a bit slow to respond. learning curve is not too bad on figuring it out. My only gripe is slow response time and that it didnt come with a remote. I had to buy one.
