Pioneer DEH-80PRS Bundle #93 for select Hyundai Sonata Vehicles

For only those who Love Amazing Sound...

If you bought another deck, I'm sorry to say you're missing out on the most high fidelity, in-car listening experience you've ever experienced.

To start, the 80prs outputs a 5v signal to your amps. This means that any outer noise introduction into the system (The Hummmmm or buzzzzz), is simply rejected. It also means your amps can "relax" a bit, as your gains will be lowered.

It features three Burr Brown DACs. One for the high, mid and low frequencies. This allows your MP3s, WAVs, etc., to sound wonderful.

On to the user interface... I personally use 64gb SD cards, class 10. This deck has no problem reading the cards quickly. And searching for songs is also easy, if they're organized in the appropriate folders. The screen is clear and easily visible, but not overly bright.

Toggling through other menu items, after you've "played" with it for an hour, and you will, makes you realize how simple this deck is to operate.

Now let's get to the auto EQ and T/A. You may read varied reviews about these features. However, I've been installing systems in all of my cars since I was 18 (32 now), and I'm not one to show too much "excitement" in my words, however, the auto EQ allows my Image Dynamics XS65 component speakers in my front and rear doors (Fully sound deadened and also acoustic material behind each midrange to bounce rear sound away from the speakers and not back into the cones.) to blend perfectly with my JL Audio 12w6 12" subwoofer (Trunk also fully sound deadened.)

The T/A microphone is hung over my driver seat headrest, pointed forward, once auto EQ and T/A has finished running (About 5 minutes.), the center stage is now directly in front of me, on my dash, as if the singer is literally sitting in front of me, persoanally singing for me. The sound the 80prs creates in my car (Clarity, depth, dynamics.) is by far the most impressive sound I've ever heard in any car, ever. It is simply something you need to experience for yourself.

If you want the best sounding system, if you want to enjoy your music to it's fullest, most exciting potential, if you want your vehicle to sound amazing, I'm telling you (And so are others running this deck), nothing, NOTHING, n-o-t-h-i-n-g comes close to competing with this deck.

Order it, enjoy it, and be sure to thank yourself for making the best decision. Your deck is the brain of your system, and the 80prs is the Albert Einstein of in-dash receivers.

Sound quality tips:

Wires and cables: Only use shielded, 100% OFC speaker wires, RCA cables and your amp install kit should consist of this, too.

Door panels and trunk: If you're replacing your speakers, you're obviously removing your doors, or have already (Once you do it once, it's simple.), be sure to add sound deadening material at least 6 inches around your midrange woofer, and also on the backside of the inside door (The plastic part). This greatly reduces any added, yet unwanted noises from vibrations. Do the trunk as well - you do not want annoying vibrations when your sub, or subs, hit. Clean up the sound before the sound is played... get me?

If you're on a tight budget, be patient and wait. Don't buy something just to buy it to move on to the next thing in desperation to complete your system. I've been putting together my system for 5 months now, $3500 later, and it's still not done... this is a passion for me, and if you're considering this deck, your car audio system should be a passion for you, too. Otherwise, except the sound from your factory system.

Peace :)

supertuner

this is my third super tuner over a lifetime I have never been disappointed, I have to say this one is really nice fairly simple great sound very clean looking. I didn't realize how bad my factory tundra stereo system was until I replaced all speakers and the head unit very happy.

The best Sound Quality unit for the price PERIOD!

So far I have only used it in the passive mode but the time alignment and eq work great! I am very excited that I will be getting to set it up in active mode within the next month or so. There are not many head units that can do active if not any at this price. It is able to do 2 way active with sub. It is such a clean a clean unit that even at its max volume at 62 it is only at .015 THD! At around 4.75 volts. I am looking forward to many good years and good music with the 80prs! You will not be disappointed!

Amazing quality

I researched alot before getting this head deck and in my opinion there is only one better head deck for sound quality and that's it's big over priced brother lol having three 5v RCA outputs makes a huuge difference to the sound quality and there is so much you can adjust and fine tune I've personall spent hours on end playing with the settings and with a 16 band equalizer I have it set up perfectly so it's crystal clear and no longer able to hurt my ears with any nasty highs and still pump out over 146db of sound. It wouldn't be possible for my car to sound so good without it. Buy one now!!!

Quality for price this deck wins every time.

I've been wanting to do a sound quality build for some time now, but it seemed that every deck I looked at was overly priced and lacked features such as a detailed EQ, Digital to analog converters and a good built in crossover system such as in this deck.

I have a 1999 Honda accord ex and the stock stereo system was just ok to me. The main stereo didn't play Cd's very well as it would skip every song on a disc just for having 1 finger print on the Cd. The front speakers sounded pretty good for being stock they had a good bit of bass and mid bass and the treble from the in-dash tweeters actually sounded good and not at all harsh, but the rear 6X9 speakers didn't sound good at all they lacked in bass of which the front speakers actually hit good in comparison which is sad for 6X9's and the thing I noticed most ''which was probably do to the stock stereo'' is that when a song was playing with just 1-2 instruments in the song it would sound ok, but when the music got more complex the overall sound would lose it's composer/detail.

After I installed the DEH-80PRS and set loudness to on and did a quick EQ set I Noticed a immediate improvement in overall sound quality The stock Accord speakers actually sounded like a new system
The front speakers had more clarity and depth from them and the rear 6X9's actually came alive they sounded better on both highs and lows where before they where pretty much just bland, but now when I play music with some bass in it they hit almost like a small sub-woofer (although not as hard of course but you get the idea).

The overall features,sound quality and performance of this deck can not be beat from any other deck except for the Pioneer deh-99prs, but this deck coming around $900 less there's almost no point in getting the 99prs unless you want the best of the best, but either way this still makes the deh-80prs the 2nd best deck on the market hands down.

All in all this is a very good deck for the money the only thing I didn't like about the deh-80prs is that it still feels a little cheap to me since the face is made of plastic, but it still feels durable to me.

My future build includes adding on focal access components to the front stage and focal access 6X9's for the rear stage and later on they will be replaced by the focal Flax series and my amps will include a focal solid-4 for the mids and highs and a focal solid-1 for the subwoofer of which right now I have a old Kicker l7 15 that I will be using until I can afford a Focal sub-woofer.

If you have any questions just post them to me and I also will be setting up a YouTube account to show the system as of now and then future upgrades.

I hope I helped thanks.

Pioneer DEH_PRS80

This is my first Pioneer since my outstanding Premier 940MP laid down. All I can say is I am equally impressed with the sound quality of this unit! The install was typical but the sound quality is not. I used it to replace the Bose system in an older Nissan Maxima. Even with the stock speakers and amplifiers it was an instant joy to the ears. The 6 RCA outputs into the stock amps were a little odd but it worked like a charm. I set up the RTA mic and let the system do the rest. Nice flat response across the sound spectrum and the ability to boost or cut as needed to taste. I had this with the 940MP and once you have this option it is hard to do without it. I upgraded the door speakers with Infinity Reference series 2 ohm and the 8" sub with a Kicker Comp DVC 2 ohm sub. I used the factory amp from the sub assembly into the Kicker for now. Again, sound quality is perfection. Being an audio production guy and an amateur electronics nerd I appreciate the Burr Brown op amps and custom audiophile capacitors and resistors. This is where the sound quality battle is won or lost. Noise at the pre amp floor means noise at the output top! The unit is dead quiet and the distortion is nearly non existent even at max volume. I cannot speak for the Mosfet amplifier stage as I am not using it. If it is similar to the 940MP it will do just fine for most users. The Mosfets can handle the Infinity 2 ohm demand without overheating. This will get the most out of any amp put on them. I stuck with silk dome tweeters, again I am quality audio junkie. No harsh Mylar or aluminum tweets. The controls for the front and rear speakers are a level control, built in HP crossover from 50-225 with pass through, 6db and 12db per octave. The sub control has a mono, stereo switch. There is a level control, LP crossover points from 50-225 and 6db, 12db and 18db per octaves. This unit has more inputs than some live sound mixers. Two USB, a front and rear aux, Bluetooth and a front SD slot plus the CD player itself. It will play MP3 WMA (my favorite) and works with those trendy apple products too. The colors will match any dash and the analog looking VU meters are as old school as it gets. Don't expect a light show in the dash or other stuff to keep you distracted (you should be driving and not looking anyway). The controls take some getting used too but I have a long commute so it didn't take long for me to catch on. If you want a professional quality unit, this is THE one.

great value appreciate it

Pioneer deh80 prs is just amazing it reached on time. I thank all sonic electronix team for helping me.

great value for quality

Lots of advantages in options, incredible sound quality, nice design. This head unit is worth the money. I would recommend it to any audio enthusiast and music lover.

Quality head unit

This head unit was as simple/difficult as any other head unit to install. I put it in my 90 Nissan 300zx Twin Turbo that originally had a bose stereo. I paired it with an older hifonics nemesis nx880 amp. I am running some cdt audio components and an 8 ohm home woofer for some lows. The tuning options were great and all the extra's are pretty awesome. I'd recommend this head unit.

Excellant

Best head unit I have ever owned! The features this radio comes with for cost, has to be the best bang for your buck unit out there!
There may be units out there that can do a little more, but at triple the price, for those looking to step up in the quality of their sound image without breaking the bank, this is the radio for you!
Two small gripes keep it from having a perfect score, there is a production flaw that leaves what looks like a very small crack on the right side of the faceplate. It is very small but if you look close you will see it, and it takes awhile to learn how to navigate thru all the controls this head unit has. I got it down after a few days, but none the less it is a little user UNfriendly.
Past that, this headunit has given me the best "sound stage" I have ever had in a vehicle and I couldn't be happier with it.
