Which car stereo?

Postby rossyl on Sat Sep 16, 2006 12:23 pm

Hi,

Which of the following?

Pioneer DEH-2800MP

JVC KD-G321

Kenwood KDC-W3534G

The last two has the advantage of being illuminated in green, which matches the car. I'm not sure the Pioneer can change from its red illuminated lights to green.

But what is also better for sound quality? The car has a built in amplifier as well.

Also any tips of where to get it? I've looked at Caraudiodirect and caraudiocentre.co.uk

None of the above mate. Save some more pennies and get a better quality Alpine or Kenwood.

I've found Alpines CDA-9812RB to be a little cracker :Q Just got myself a Kenwood KDC-W707 which is proving a nice sounding unit. Also have my old Kenwood PS-1077R in my A4 that despite being pretty old now still does the job :D .

If your on a strict budget i'd go for the pioneer as they have a good reputation. My brother has one of the hhigher models from a year or two ago and it is quite impressive, even on his primera's standard speakers.

I'd higly recommend saving for bit though, especially if you are planning on expanding your system further.

I've recently purchased this http://www.caraudiocentre.co.uk/product.asp?product=20858 Kenwood KDC-W7531 and impressed with it. Sooo many features, great looking, and a relatively powerful intenal amp (4x30RMS). :Q. I also like it's RCA aux imput on the back of it so i can connect my walkman to it.
