The 7894 looks great. Just 3 questions on it....does it have a long mp3 load time when switching tracks? It claims it needs a direct connection to my battery...is it possible to hookup without that? Finally hows alpines reliablity?

What about the Clarion DXZ835MP, I've seen it mentioned in other threads but no one really has commented much about it. Seems it has most of the stuff I would want. Either that or maybe i'll wait on the 750mp due out soon or something.

I was looking at the Pioneer PREMIER DEH-P740MP, but after some reading it seems this deck suffers from long pauses between track changes while listening to mp3s. Is it that bad? Maybe some suggestions on other decks or comments on this deck will help me out.

I just got back a few mailin rebates and have some extra money, so I've decided to retire my old Pioneer deh-p6000. I like this deck, but I think I want something with mp3 ablity and maybe a bit better sq. I am looking for something that can be found in the $200-$300 range, just don't have a...

I have a 94 Olds Eighty Eight with a power antenna, I recently installed my Pioneer Deh-P6000 hu which doesn't have a power antenna lead. This really isn't too big of a deal since i wired it to the remote. My question is can i wire a switch off my remote lead so that I can control the antenna...

From what I've read/heard, the jbp amps are cheap (but pretty good) power. While that JL amp isn't as powerful but a much nicer amp.

I'm just guessing...but the best place to find old rf amps is probley ebay.

You can get almost any part directly from pioneer. I had to order a ribbon cable for my Deh-p6000 and it was pretty cheap and they don't charge much for shipping.

As far as I know this deck is about 1.5-2 years old, and it has a few labels on the wiring harness. The remote wire is a blue and while wire, and I don't see anything labeled power antenna, but that just could be from the fact not every wire has a label. Anyone have any experience with this deck...

Yeah I know a manual would probley tell me what I needed to know, but I bought this deck used from a friend who has long since lost it. That was why I asked. If this deck doesn't have a dedicated power antenna lead could I parrallel a switch off the remote wire to send the antenna up and down...

I just thought of one more thing, my car has a power antena, and I know that if I hook it up to the remote lead it will make it go up when the deck powers up. The problem is I don't use the radio much and when i'm using the cd player I don't want my antena up, is there anyway to wire it so that...

I'm going to have a 1994 Olds 88 royal soon, and I want to move my Pioneer P-6000 deck to my new car. I measured the old factory unit (tape deck and radio only), its taller than my Pioneer deck but its width is just about the same i think. Anyone know of a way to mount this? I assume a new front...

K thx for telling me I was right about that. I have one more question, with a JBL 1200.1 will it be too much for the stock alt in my 91 Buick Regal? My dad had it checked at work a few months back and said it was putting out like 120A or something...is that enough amperage to power that amp and...

I'm thinking of getting a shiva sub fairly soon and the other day I was thinking that if I wire the vcs in parallel I would get a resistance of 4ohms right? If that is right then I would need a sub that puts out around 600w at 4ohms. The only reason I was thinking about this was that I narrowed...
