What would you recommend for best sound quality from factory. Speakers will still be factory, not Bose. I really want a USB or auxiliary as I want to use my iPhone to play music, also listen to the radio a lot. I never use cd's so if getting a non CD player gives better value that's definitely...

Something in my gut was telling me there was a reason I took this out and bought the alpine cda9855 to put in my old accord other than wanting to have the newest best unit. I just couldn't remember for sure, and figured if I hung on to the pioneer it must have still been good. I'm just gonna...

Ok I just threw in a 10 amp fuse, wired the red and yellow together, did the battery test and I got crackling + a lot of smoke from the head unit instantly. If it wasn't damaged before I imagine it is now. Probably not worth taking everything apart to reinstall at this point. I think I'm just...

So I feel like a complete idiot. All I had to do was open my eyes apparently. I'm assuming the fuse slot with 10A printed next to it should in fact have a 10 amp fuse in it

For clarification, I only have 2 head units.. Factory and the pioneer. Where would the fuse be on the pioneer? Also, I did not hook up the antenna when I was testing the aftermarket unit. I'm trying to be relatively cheap with this and was going to take it back in the event it would not work...

The wife started yelling "are you ever going to be finished" earlier so I reinstalled the factory head unit and cut the splices off of the harnesses. But now I'm tempted to give it another try tomorrow. For the sake of argument, if it were one of the fuses wouldn't the factory head unit have...

And a quick question, the aftermarket harness has an "amp ground" wire and 2 "chassis ground" wires. I have the amp ground capped off since I have no amp And the 2 chassis grounds spliced together. Is this correct? Edit* I ran the ground from the head unit to the (-) terminal on the...

I'm upgrading the existing factory head unit in my 06 Nissan pathfinder. I found one of my old head units from a few years back (2005) when I upgraded my accord with a newer system. It is a pioneer deh-p4700mp. I went to Walmart and bought a harness, wired everything up and plugged it into my...
