Title: Head Units
Post by: Montana00 on August 12, 2004, 09:54:02 AM

Ive been running a stock head unit in my car (cuz its got a 6 cd changer), but would i get alot better performace (sub and speakers) if i were to buy a new head unit?

ANY aftermarket head unit is better than stock.

You will definitely get better output from a new head unit, especially if you don't have an amp

and you were wondering my 3 10's weren't bumping in your car. I know you will have a better experience with an aftermarket.
If you are interested tomorrow I might be coming into a few head units. I will sell you one real cheap. Believe me I don't get a head unit if it is a piece of shit. It has to be in near perfect condition. So you dont have to worry. I will have pics up saturday

why would you spend your money on a head unit when u already have a 6 disk changer, and you want better performance from your speakers and subs.  Buy an amp, it will solve your problem much better.

i got an alpine, SHOULD, be the best, it plays MP3s, so i think its better than a 6 cd changer, id rather have 6 cds on 1 cd, plus, usually, that shit is in the truck and its anoying as fuck, the prob with my alpine, is that it plays reg CDs perfectly, but the fuckin MP3 cd, takes a while to load, it says Error, and u gotta take it out and put it back in, like 5 times... i gotta fuckin call alpine, and see wats up

im not really into SONY for car audio AT ALL, but it aint a bad unit, id rather get a pioneer or alpine, or panasonic, etc.

I have had a middle range Pioneer deck in my cars since i was 16 and a half and Im 19.I bought it for 300$.. I put it in  every car I had and still works and looks perfect. Thats why I will stick with Pioneer head units.
