just got a ranger. love music so im replacing the head unit soon, and speakers a bit after that (when money allows)

debating between these two units but i'm open to suggestions, preferably sub 100

i like this one

i'd go with the Alpine. I have had some bad experiences with Pioneer stuff.

 

ranger_key. looks nice but id like to stick sub 100 as i need to save for other things (and speakers)

stx thanks for the advice, its a tough choice i like the alpine a wee bit more but the pioneers price is wow.

 

try walmart

i like pioneer, never had a problem with mine and iv had it for about 3 or 4 years.

 

ive had several pioneers with no trouble, but honestly you won't go wrong with either. the main thing will be getting new speakers and adding a sub.

 

thanks. yeah im picking up a set of kicker 6x8's new off craigslist this weekend for the front, not sure what for the rear. and will eventually toss in a tube sub

 

buy my headunit lol

btw i have family in tacoma haha

 

legit, what type of head unit is it?

 

Its a panasonic. it was top of the line when i bought it before all double dins got popular.

Here is my sale thread. Pictures are listed in there

if you're not interested thats cool. take a look at this site, there are killer deals on stuff
http://www.sonicelectronix.com/

 

personally i like JVC... ive had the same one for over 5 years and it still works great and cost me 160 bux new

 

looks nice, but sadly its not for me. ive been looking at speakers from sonic elecxtronix. didnt even think to check their stereo section haha silly me.

 

haha yeah they have good deals on stuff

 

yeah they do. found some cool units. their eclipse double din looks interesting. looks like the stock radio yet subtly nicer.

hmm.

 

seems like it has pretty decent reviews

 

yeah it does, but is it worth the same price as a decent alpine or pioneer. oh the choices.

edit after rereading the reviews.
doesnt seem to be worth it (the eclipse double din)

back to the apline pioneer debate.

 

if you want a decent head unit for your money buy the multimedia dual at your local advance auto, i got mine for 65 and i only had one problem with it just took it back and they replaced it no questions asked i love it

 

i assume you mean something like this one:

dual in dash dvd player are no good i went through 3 my last one it stop playing cds but played dvd fine and my current is a Pioneer DEH-P4800MP it was made in 2005 and it still works great

not bad, but for the same price (assuming it goes to about 50-60) i could get a new pioneer with mp3 capabilities.

 

it was just a example of what mine looks like but if your prize range is a 100 than

yeah thats what i meant its cool because you can play cds ipods or usbs for i personally like it most people dont like dual but its whatever
