I have this in my 98 eclipse and it functions great. It is simple to use if you just take a couple of minutes to read the manual and not try to work it on your own. I would definitely recommend this to anyone looking for a great stereo at an affordable price.

The controls are a joke. I have a hard time switching from one function to another. The volume and tuner controls are in the same dial which leads to massive confusion.

The stereo itself and the features are a good deal for the money. I only wish it were easier to operate.

Back in the day, Pioneer is all I purchased for Decks back when their Premier Series was still around. Now after looking at these newer "low-end" Decks from Pioneer, I must say I am a little disappointed.

This Deck has a pretty decent EQ and puts out a pretty clear signal to my Speakers although, this is not very "user-friendly" at all. I found it very hard to navigate this Deck to get to where I needed to be.

On a Plus side, the front USB feature is nice for quick connections between USB Drives, iPods and MP3 Players, and 2 RCA outputs on the back to install more than one Amplifier.

Overall, for in it's price range, I would suggest saving a bit more and looking into either the DEH-P8300UB or DEH-P7200HD.

Customer Testimonial

Sonic Electronix was very efficient and courteous in working with me. I have a relatively unique vehicle and Sonic quickly found a solution to my mounting problems. Richard M. was extremely helpful and did a great job of meeting my needs.
