Pioneer DEH-X5800HD

Excellent buy!

This product is an excellent buy, especially for the price since it includes the wiring and installation kit. I've owned this unit for around 6 months now, I purchased it through Sonic Electronix and I must say I'm extremely pleased with it, no problems whatsoever!

Good radio!

Works very nice. Easy installation and settinngs too.

Excellent

Product is awesome! Pioneer is rock solid. The multicolor display allows me to match the interior lighting color of my existing 1994 F-250. At night the color does not look "out of place". Plus the iPod integration is great.

I have the Pioneer DEH-7300BT in my BMW. Once you understand how to navigate the "rotary commander dial" you'll never look back.

works

The stereo works but even with the higher output and the new speakers i got it doesn't sound as good as it should.

RECORDING STUDIO OWNER

The unit has that great pioneer sound and i love the remote. It is one of the better cd players that you can find out there, and i would recommend this unit to any one who is looking for a clean transparent sound.

PERFECT!!!!!!

i just bought this for my 2004 ford ranger, got the wiring and dash mount kit with it for free. all i can say is this thing fits nice, it looks nice and best of all. it go here in 2 days! i even did the free shipping part. (i guess im close to the store or somethin) but this is a really cool stereo! i would reccomend it. it also charges ur ipod and you'll hear the same sound with the usb cord and the aux. there is one thing i didnt like though. once u hook up ur iphone, u cant change songs through ur phone, u have to use the stereo to find the song u wanna hear. Overall, 4.89 out of 5!

love it for the price

I would recomend this head unit.

omg buy it!!!

good

It's a good product it has great controls for the price I feel like it was a great buy 4/5.

Great radio with poor user interface

The DEH-4300UB has tons of features, performs very well, and is reasonably priced. Bought it because I could make the front panel illumination an identical colour to my dash panel.

However, it is difficult to operate with a poor user interface. For example, when touching the large rotary knob to lower the volume while driving it is extremely easy to inadvertently press the knob, enter menu mode, enter illumination mode and then thinking that one is lowering the volume the display colour is changed instead.

It is totally impossible to change the tone of what you are listening to (eg BASS or TREBLE) while driving because you have to enter menu mode, scroll down three levels of menu to get to BASS, and then adjust. This is several pushes of different pushbuttons. It is necessary to stop the car to do this.

Also, the menu control pushbuttons take some getting used to. There is nothing in the manual that clearly explains them and nothing to say how to get out of menu mode. Finally found by trial and error the correct button to press to leave menu mode without having to turn off the radio.

Great performing radio but would not recommend it because it is anything but intuitive to use and requires at least an hour to learn how to operate it.
