good for the price

this head unit is good it gives you alot of control over the sound and the bass it is a good buy for the price.

Good Deck

I just bought this product from B*** B** electonic store and I would recommend this product. It offers 3 pre outlets so you can add additional amps if you want. It also has the last pre out for a sub amp so you can turn it on and off from the deck which is very convenient. This deck also has attachments for
ipod and other audio accessories you would want to add to it.

Great Headunit

Pros-It is very simple to use. It provides the average person with everything they need. It has the ability to allow for the addition of an Ipod and sat radio. The controls are easy to navigate even when driving. Very enjoyable easy to use headunit.

Cons-None

Price Point-The working mans headunit. Does everything you need it to at price that you will never fell in the wallet.

great little HU

For the price, this HU simply cannot be beat. The controls are very intuitive, USB interface is seamless, SQ is excellent, and it looks great.

excellant deck

I have this in a 1997 camaro. Pioneer decks are in my opinion one of the best decks on the market, for budget minded spenders. I have the 2006 model. You can see the screen in any light. the Features that it has is unbelievable for the price.The amplifier is powerful and clean.easy to use. Love it!

Difficult AUX setting use

I love the features of this device in my car but it is hard when you first get an iPod and want to connect it to your car stereo. I found out that the manuals and the tech support don't know anything about changing to the AUX settings. Apparently you have to go to the power off mode, then hold the button till you are able to change the time. Press function after that just to activate the AUX mode. Still having problems because I am using the RCA inputs on the back then the IP- Bus which I'm not willing to buy for 50$. Whoever designed has good taste in style, hard to use when you want more out of the Radio/CD player.

Good product - good buy - great price

I have had this unit installed for 3 days now and love it! i use to install car audio so it was an easy install for me, and for a novice wouldn't be hard either. Sonic was great with fast order and shipping,and had the right dash kit and wire kit for me. Although this product states it has a face cover included, I did NOT receive one :(
The stereo is awesome with sound shaping and sub woofer controls and is LOUD! using the USB file menu can be tricky as well as programming FM stations. The Multi knob is pretty sensitive and takes some getting use to - thank goodness for the remote! I have had some issues with WMA files on the USB and i am looking into if i read wrong if it plays them or not
Great buy! and Great price overall - Thanks Sonic

Great Unit

I have his deck in my truck, and it sounds great along with the 2 12" subs I have hooked up to it. It has just as many features as the motorized head unit I had before this one(same brand) and at half the cost. the other one just looked better. Although I would pefer the face to drop down to expose the cd slot, I would recommend this deck to anyone just based on the features and sound it emits.

Great for the money

Lots of features! love how i can hook up my ipod through the usb connect Overall good head unit

Pioneer Deck

By far the best CD deck i"ve bought yet, lots of settings for sound, subs, and more, definitely worth every penny

Most Universal

Its Universal! aux, wav, mp3, usb , 4channels, sub control and more. One of the best for private use, like all pioneer equipment...

Very good quality!!

Pioneer has always had great head units and small speakers. There subs are very average. This stereo is unbeatable for the features it has and the price.
I Love it!!!

Great In-Dash

I recently had this in-dash installed and have no complaints. It is very easy to use and has a separate subwoofer control which is very handy. I recommend this in-dash to everyone.

Great Headunit!

I just bought this stereo and it's got great sound! you can tune it to sound however you want it, lots of bass too. if u want sumthing that sounds great and isnt expensive get this.

One of the best for the price!

I bought this radio not too long ago, for the price you cant beat it... mp3, wma, wave, aac, cd play back, cd-rw, cd-r. Front rear, and sub output, face is detachable, and with a remote control... you just cant beat this unit!

To me its better the alpine on the price range scale, honestly pioneer just does good things!

Nice looking, easy to use headunit.

I had one of these few months ago before I bought new one. This was certainly nice player. Good features with nice look. Easy to use and Pioneer Quality!

Awesome product

I just purchased this unit from SonicElectronix and it is awesome!! Great sound, easy to hook up since I received the install kit and harness.

For the price, I recommend it 100%!!

Holy sound quality, Batman!

This head unit has so many different features for sound quality, as well as features if you would like to shake the heck out of your car with a subwoofer. I purchased this deck, and was immediately aware of the difference in sound quality even with my stock components in the doors. So, I went and upgraded them to the Kicker speakers. The sound quality is so amazing with this deck. You can adjust your lows, mids, highs, bass level, subwoofer level, and what frequency your subwoofer plays best, and so many other things, that it will blow your mind. I have owned this deck for a month or two, and don't think I have explored all the features yet. I highly recommend to someone who either wants more sound quality, or bass, or even both. Extremely satisfied with my purchase.

Pioneer

I bought this early 08 and my dad was so impressed by the features he bought one too.
It has enough pre outs to add all u could ever want and change the names of the inputs to make it your own. He has a Sirius satellite radio and it hooked up beautifully.

My friends were amazed by how nice it was and at a great price too.

amazing

I bought this back in Nov. from Circuit city with free installation and four year warranty for 215 and it is awesome. It was incredibly better than my stock head unit, and even way better than the previous pioneer head unit i had in. Well worth the money!!!!!!!!!

Great value and design

Recommend this car stereo as it has the "old style" design with the possiblity of inserting CD through the face of the stereo, rather than flipping it to access the insert. The main control joystick is both genious and annoying. Easy general controls, but annoying if you like fiddling with EQ settings.

Great Product, Great Price

This deck is wonderful, the design is really sleek. Great sound quality, and the auxiliary input is wonderful for plugging in your ipod or mp3 player. The controls are very easy to use and the features are great. I only wish I had bought it from sonic electronix. The store I went to charged me $90 extra for the installation parts and it was $140 for the stereo itself. If you're not worried about self installation save yourself some money.

AMAZING!

I got this headunit back in january and i still to this day am finding out some of the feature this thing has. Pioneer added so many feature to this headunit that some are really unnecessary, like the rear channels can be bridged for a sub channel... its crazy. Not enough can be said about this deck. Pioneer gets my two thumbs up on this one.

Headunit

This headunit is great! I can play all of my formats without any trouble. It is easy to use. One of the best.

Sweet Deck

I bought this deck a week ago, and I like it a lot, it reminds me of my last deck except it does not have the switch to go to the networking system, and I can't go through and change every hertz for high, mid, an lows. And It didn't come with a fuse holder to the battery. I had to go an buy one. But overall I'm happy with the deck and I would recommend it.

Not the best, nor the worst.

Not a bad cd player if thats all your looking for... a head unit that will play back CD's faithfully. If lacking in features and sound enhancments isn't an issue for you than this low end H.U. could be right for you. On the other hand if you like to have the best and latest equipment I'd pass on this unit and go with perhaps the 8600 model. Check it out I'm sure it will amaze you.

Great headunit

This is one of the best headunits for the money. It has plenty of options and EQ and tons of other helpful presets. it also looks great and has a very clean face on it.

Nice

Good Product. Works Well.
