Excellent Stereo

Replaced the Monsoon deck in my 2000 Pontiac Trans Am with this Pioneer unit and the difference is night and day. The speakers are so much clearer and louder. Great stereo for the price. The I-Pod Connection works perfectly.

Amazing Purchase..

This new deck combined with my P3 subwoofers equals some SERIOUS BUMP... I love the ease of use with this deck and as well as with the iPod adapter. It looks great and feels even better. This is a great deal. Buy this unit while you can!

excellent unit

i got this unit here at SE, and with the free ipod cable, mounting deck, and wiring harness, you cant beat this deal. especially since this head unit is amazing. makes my speakers sound incredible! the ipod navigation through the unit is very easy to use and sound quality is great. the subwoofers sound a lot better now too, and you have total control over the subs, speakers, crossovers, and equalizers. excellent job pioneer, i'm hooked!

completly worth it

I picked this unit because I didnt want bulky lettering in the display, or one that dances around with cartoons and other unnecessary extras. The display is perfect. Easy to use, especially since I can control the iPod from the face itself.

Great Bang for your buck!

I purchased this unit for its ability to control my ipod. I was a little worried about the ease of operation at first, but this HU works flawlessly when controlling the ipod! Install the stereo, hook up the cable and the ipod works great and sounds great! The sound quality of this unit is supurb. I would recommend this to anyone looking for a HU that controls the ipod and doesnt cost you an arm and a leg.

Awesome

I ordered this radio off the website and I couldn't be happier. I love this thing. I love the iPod setup and how you can adjust the highs, mids, and lows. Installation was quick and simple. Radio came with the wiring harness for my car so I didn't have to cut my old one. My subwoofers pound even harder with this radio. I like how I can turn on and off my subs with this radio so I don't have to do it by myself.

You won't go wrong with this radio.

Must buy

I love this head unit. The ipod adapter is really cool, although you must use the headunit to find your song (can be time consuming). There are so many different ajustments to fine tune your system. I had a older aftermarket head unit in my truck before and it was alright not great or anything and the sound was good i thought, until i installed this. Major difference. This head unit has much clearer and deeper sound. Must buy i absolutly love this head unit.

Awesome price, GR8 unit!

I bought this receiver for my wife's birthday back in April and she loves it. She wanted to be able to listen to her iPod in her car without a bunch of ugly cables hanging out everywhere, and I wanted to get something that would be simple to install and easy for her to operate. This unit fits the bill. It sounds great and works well with her iPod. The controls for the iPod take some getting used to, but after you do they are not hard to use. The only thing I can say bad, is it looks like the remote for the DEH-P590iB has a joystick like button that my friend says makes the iPod controls a little more similar to the clickwheel control on an iPod. I can't say for sure, as I've never played around with the controls on his stereo, but little details like that matter to me, so when I upgrade my current stereo, I'm going to shell out the extra $40 for the DEH-P590iB. But I have nothing bad to say about this unit, its a steal for what they are offering here and it sounds great!
