    Pioneer DEH-P9400BH or Kenwood KDC-X996?

    Well, quick update, after much debate and not getting to toy with either one of them, I ended up going with the Kenwood and man, what a great decision that was. First off, it was nothing less than stellar purchasing from Crutchfield...I got the head unit, Scosche factory integration adapter w/...

    Who said anything about changing EQ to add bass?

    Pioneer DEH-P9400BH or Kenwood KDC-X996?

    The Kenwood definitely has color change options. The 13-band EQ is a toss-up for me. I had been looking at the 80PRS but honestly I think I would be putting a $350 head unit to waste and it has 16 bands. Like I said, I'm picky about my EQ, but my stock head unit only has bass and treble and I...

    Pioneer DEH-P9400BH or Kenwood KDC-X996?

    Been looking at head units for a while now and I keep coming back to these two. I will be running this into the stock Bose amps/speakers in my 04 Pathfinder LE. 99% of the time I will be running an 7th gen iPod Classic 160gb through a USB port for my audio. Everything is 320kbps mp3s. I like...

    New member, replacing Bose with a "budget" SQ setup...need suggestions

    As I admitted earlier, I am naive when it comes to car audio, so let me ask what is probably a stupid question: Why couldn't I take the factory Bose amp out, put a new amp in, and connect the stock wires to the new amp? EDIT: After doin' some searchin' I have now figured out why...had no idea...

    New member, replacing Bose with a "budget" SQ setup...need suggestions

    It's not that I don't want a sub, trust me I do. But while I'm still living at an apartment I don't want any excuse for someone to bust out my glass to get to it. After I get all this other stuff done I may look into a custom box for the back that goes in the plastic compartment where the stock...

    New member, replacing Bose with a "budget" SQ setup...need suggestions

    I didn't say anything about upconverting exisiting mp3s as that'd be pointless and SQ would be worse than the original mp3. I was talking about reconverting CDs to FLAC instead of mp3. So what would you reccommend for components for 200ish new? I'll be watchin for deals in the classifieds as...

    First post here, folks. I have a 04 Pathfinder LE Platinum Edition with the factory Bose system...6 disc/casette in-dash, components w/ a-pillar mounted tweeters, w/ the amp in the back and I'm beyond ready to get rid of the no highs, no lows, no mids, all distortion crap that company puts out...
