[QUOTE="CRACKLES-4130, post: 8742853, member: 682728"] Haha yay someone on "my side"!! 😂🤣 Mate, the fact that it's only got one set of pre-outs is about the only "fault" I can find with it... It may not have the fastest processor or 1 million giga's of storage space but it's got a few things going for it like 1080p+ resolution, it will play ANY audio/video format, 50x4 watt output, GPS antenna input, SD card reader, USB x2, Video in & out, Bluetooth blah blah so unless it shits the bed early on I think I've done pretty well for AUD$61.00 delivered to my door (in less than 10 days, too!) Also, I've found with Bluetooth connectivity, the connecting device has more to do with how user friendly it is and whether or not you have a frustrating time. My Samsung Galaxy S10+ shits all over my other phone, an S8+, like it's night & day so I'm hoping it will be fine for it's intended purpose. To play music. If it does a decent job of navigation then that's a bonus! 😊 I do hope it has a multi band EQ, that could be a deal breaker for me. Simple "BASS" & "TREBLE" just won't cut it... Mind you, I might be able to tweak the crossovers and levels in the amps if the head unit doesn't have the adjustment range. Meh, I can mess with the sound output settings on my phone anyways... I got another amp, this one is a 4x150 (rms) Audioline. Yep, a cheapy but is prolly better than the Boss... 🤔 Well, it's cleaner anyways haha! Going to pass thru RCA's from the R/F amp to it so it can power the X-plod's in the doors and the JL's in the rear panels. Nice, tight, solid speaker mounts, too. I'm going to give these speakers every opportunity to sound the best they can (with what I've got)... Hopefully I'll have it all working in a few hours. I'm just having a bit of trouble finding a suitable place to get the power cables in from the engine compartment. I just can't get my hands anywhere near convenient spots from the engine side to under the dash. It's beginning to get hair on it real quick... Plenty of breaks or I'll be losing my ****..! Oh and I'll report back on what I think of this h/u. Cheers man! [/QUOTE]
