Jensen, Pioneer, Eclipse, or Panasonic?

which one of those is better including the model number for under $400?

please help because i have a jensen right now, and i just put in a ps2 in my car, and for some apparent reason the quality of the ps2 on the jensen is bad

any help please?

 

even Eclipse base models are solid HU's, even if they're not as flashy as others in the price range.

 

so eclipse is good, but anyone got model numbers of something that is good qulity and for under 400 bucks?

 

Any eclipse unit or any Pioneer Premier unit. Just buy the most expensive one you can. Look around millionbuy.com or woofersetc.com.

 

so basically eclipse and pioneer are the best ones out right now?

 

the bare minimum I would recommend is the CD3100.

Its currently $250 at crutchfield.

Alpine CDA-9887

 

Are you just trying to replace your OEM unit? What (if any) features do you need? How many RCA outputs do you need? Will you need any Digital Signal Processing (eq, time alignment, crossover)? MP3 playback capability? Bluetooth? Steering wheel control compatible? Who's installing this? Do you want a warranty?

 

^nicely put.

i say the Pioneer 7800MP (i think its discontinued so you might be able to find it for cheap) and if you want bt the Pioneer 9800bt will be your choice. i wouldnt settle for anything less than those two decks, but thats just me

Keep your Jensen, the LCD makes your PS2s graphics suck! If you want a nicer quality video on the PS2... You have to find an LCD screen with a higher resolution than the Jensen.

(But, I really think LCDs suck on quality with the yellow or coax connections...)

 

I second that. I have viewed the pioneer, jvc, eclipse and clarion... they are all lacking when you consider the price we pay for these things. The screens should be much better. RCA video input does not help matters much either. Even viewing a DVD movie directly from these source units, you can still find quality flaws.

Of course there are going to be some that will say the image on their unit looks excellent but then ones idea of quality might be completely different from anothers.

Im ready for a double din hi def unit with bluray, hd dvd with hdmi and component input

 

I'll wait for a 720P version of the touch screen! (Do they have those yet???)

 

Eclipse head units are easy to integrate with the tC's steering wheel controls.

 

id go with the pioneer 6900 it has a usb cord on it and can control ur ipod through the hu by using the usb cord plus it has some cool features to it also. its priced around 300

 

Wait for the HD touch screens with HDMI, HD DVD or Blu-Ray, 720P and all the usual goodies from the old skool!

AVAILABLE NEXT YEAR!

 

wtf, are you talking about? Even if they did come out next year (do you have any links?) they'll be over $400.

 

lol I think he's being sarcastic. No one would need a 4" HD screen...and BluRay players are $500-$1000 atm.

 

you would think that buy you're talking about a guy that races GSX-Rs and wins. lol

 

Oh ya,
