    New system-help with HU choices

    Paired with my D2G with no issues at all, Pandora sync with no issues. Station navigation and song choice is all controlled smoothly from the HU after sync, even displays my phone signal strength and battery life accurately. I have not messed too much yet with the android kenwood app but as far...

    New system-help with HU choices

    So far my experiences have been great from an CD output perspective. Tomorrow i will be setting up my phone for BT and will report back on ease of use as well as sound quality for both audio and phone calls. I have it paired with a set of CDT CL42 i just got and it sounds outstanding, which I...

    Need help with 4'' component

    just noticed they are much cheaper than the sites listed MRSP and within what i wanted to spend. They look like good quality too. Also, will they sound fair enough running off of an aftermarket HU until I can get an amp for them?

    Need help with 4'' component

    Curious to know what you ended up doing? I am in the same spot you were and looking at getting the DLS R4. Anyone care to comment on these speakers? I was looking to get the best comp 4" i can get for under $200 and it looks like that is similar to your price range you originally set. I dont...

    New system-help with HU choices

    Thanks for all of the input, I decided to go with the x996 after weighing all of the options. While i am sure the 80PRS and 9400 have great SQ I don't think I would notice the huge difference coming from a stock deck in my 89 pickup compared to the kenwood lol. In end, I think i had to weigh in...

    New system-help with HU choices

    I just realized you already posted earlier you have last years model and its pretty much the same so sorry about asking about you comparing the latest model to the Kenwood. There certainly doesnt seem to be any question that any of the higher end single DIN models will be good to an extent but...

    Thanks for the input, have you compared your x996 SQ to the 9400BH? I seems like in order to get default Android support I would have to sacrifice on units with better SQ which I dont think is worth.

    Okay so after looking at everything else I will need to be getting I dont think i can afford to get the 80PRS unless it is just that much better than everything else. What is the next best option other than the 80PRS? I have ruled out the JVC so I am essentially asking for some thoughts out of...

    New system-help with HU choices

    That makes a lot of sense but I am not a huge fan of dealing with exchanges via mail. If there were a few options locally I could deal with that would be great. I was looking at buying from either abt or crutchfield since they are authorized dealers for a lot of manufacturers. As far as devices...

    New system-help with HU choices

    Yeah I wont be doing any competing and the UI of a unit is always a plus to consider. Thanks for the input so far guys, I think I am going to wave out the 2400BH now at least. So, are there enough quality differences between the x996 and the 80PRS to justify the price increase. It seems I would...

    New system-help with HU choices

    So, after prowling the site for the past few weeks looking at the vast information here I decided it was about time i registered. I have been out of the audio field for a while now and so much has changed. I am looking at upgrading my pickup with a new audio system focusing more on SQ than SPL...
