Pioneer AVH-P4000DVD users, Question??
Would replacing the stock unit with the Pioneer AVH-P4000DVD running only the factory speakers and factory sub improve the sound, or degrade the sound and therefore require a complete system upgrade??
Not looking to do a full system for a while... so I'm wondering what this will do to the sound?
Scion Pioneer Radio 160 watts (I'm guess that's a "peak" rating)
Pioneer AVH-P4000DVD:
14 watts RMS CEA-2006/50 peak x 4 channels
Thanks!

Not a user myself, but I've looked into that HU. I would also expect a slight increase in performance (the 4000 would be rated at 200W if you want to compare to the stock), so you're getting more power = more volume without distortion.
The big bonus about the headunit however, would be the ability to put in a 4-channel amp to power your speakers from the pre-amp out of the headunit. You could get a decent 4-channel amp for under $200 or so, that would give you a huge increase in response from the stock speakers.

I have this HU and did notice an improvement in sound quality. The EQ is highly customizable and overall I love it. Besides the sound quality it is awesome to be able to use an external hard drive or flash drive for music.

i have this headunit, and yes i noticed the sound got louder with stock speakers only , i also have 2 12" woofers that i think made it louder, or maybe its just me....
the only thing i dont like about this unit is the bland background, u can't change the background image like u can with an avic...but it doesn't bother me as much since i usually play music videos anyways...
