I am looking for a head unit for my car and i was considering this one:

*edit* Also how does this one compare:

How is this? Also, it says that it can play mp3's, does it load them fairly quickly.

Can you put folders on a mp3 disc, for example with different artists having their own folder and then thier songs within it?

Thanks.

 

Yea

 

i have the pioneer, its pretty good, but i might be doing in dash dvd, so i might sell it, if you interested let me know and I'll make a decision soon.

 

nice fawkin post... that helped him alot... :slap:


Alpine and Pioneer have some of the quickest mp3 load times.
I've experienced JVC :thumbdown


Any other setup in your car?

 

nope i have nothing. Right now i have the six disc changer which came with my car, but it has been getting discs stuck in it. I took it to this place and the guy said the shock mounts or somehting like that were wearing out.

So i want to get a head unit, nothing over 260 but something nice, hopefully that is able to play mp3's. Any suggestions on specific models or anything?

 

:stupid:

LOL, j/k I'm in the same situation right now too. I wanna get the in dash DVD. I have the Pioneer DEH-P4000 by the way, I love it though.

I did check out what you want though, and by the price ranges you are looking at the only brands in your range are Aiwa, Clarion, JVC, or Sony (Crutchfield) - I don't know much about them. If you could stretch it a little I would say get the Pioneer 7400.

 

Get the Pioneer. You can't go wrong with it unless you get a lemon. I have the Premier version of it and I'm content. SoundDomain is selling it for 229 right now. But in case, the special is over, there are plenty of other places that sell it for waay below that 260 budget of yours. I bought mine for 245 and the place I bought it from was selling the regular one for 235.

 

i dont get what you mean... I've heard that Pioneer had very slow mp3 load times... Alpine was a little better than Pioneer... and from what i've heard, JVC has the best mp3 unit ... because they have that digisomethin 2...

 

sorry about being so short about my answer. But yea the Kenwood Mp3 players are good the mp919 has good power output, graphics, and the face flips. Loads quick too

 

Thanks, i will look into the pioneer.
