Pioneer DEH-3200UB

BUY!

Great value for such a low price!

awesome

This deck is the best deck I've bought so far. I used to have an old pioneer with super tuner3 but this one blows it out of the water! the sub outs are fantastic, the eq settings are probably the best part. Overall great buy

BEST STEREO I EVER BOUGHT

I bought it to upgrade froma jvc basic deck to this 3200ub man I wish I would have bought it sooner extremely happy I don't regret buying this product!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Highly recommended

pioneer

Typical pioneer, some of the best tuning options among decks. Sounds good looks great. Always like there decks.

Does exactly what I need it to do

This unit is fantastic. Sound balance is key whether using stock speakers or a more upgraded system with a subwoofer,

I wanted a sleek, seamless way to play my large lossless music collection in the highest quality possible. Connected to this deck, I currently have an angled usb cord routed to a storage compartment under my dash where I keep a usb-powered hard drive with my ENTIRE music collection on it. I like high quality, so I keep most of my music in flac on my computer. With a simple conversion, I change it to wav which this unit supports. Even with around 150 artists' songs in wav, a 250 gig hard drive is enough to hold it all. The unit's controls make browsing for artists quite easy. Somehow it even retains and uses all the tag information from flac to wav... (artist, title, album, track, etc... all there!). Startup time is pretty slow with so much data to sift through (almost 15-20 seconds), but once up it never lags.

I already had newer speakers (also Pioneer) and a powered sub to fill in the LFE. I love the balance between the sub and the speakers... all very adjustable, all very complimentary. My sub's powered amp has a very strong signal to work with, easing stress on it to deliver power. This caused overheat issues for me with my older pioneer, but not with this unit.

Kinda wish it had RDS, but can't say I use the radio much anyway.

Also, whoever said it was hard to set the clock is an idiot... turn the unit off, then press and hold the control knob. The first option in this menu that appears is to set the clock. The control knob's aesthetics don't bother me either—not too stubby as some have claimed.


Look forward to many years of enjoying this deck!

good stereo for the price

I installed this radio about 6 months ago and love it. sometimes its a little slow and lags. Also it sometimes takes a while to read the ipod when I connect it through the usb. other that that its simple to use and I definately reccommend it to others.

Good system for the pice

This stereo system offers great sound and serious audiophile features, however, it is not without its design flaws, too. Setting presets are not easy and definitely should be done before hitting the open road. I've owed this system for 6mos. and still can not set the clock ...end-user stupidity, probably.
That said, I would recommend it to anyone looking for a new car stereo. My wife and I love the USB port, which essentially makes both the clock and station search woes non-issues.
Bottom line, price and quality make the Pioneer DEH-3200UB a no brainer.

Liked it so much I bought two!

Replaced an Aiwa headunit in my wife's Civic with this receiver and was so satisfied with it, I bought another one for my Mustang. Just got the 2nd one hooked up in my car and it sounds excellent! Plenty of power for windows-down moderate volume, but will need an external amp unless you want to trim a lot of the bass out of it for high volume listening at highway speeds.

The bang for the buck with this receiver can't be beat. More features than many much more expensive units. The EQ control is great as well as the subwoofer control and bass boost. Takes a little bit to get used to iPod navigation, but not a huge deal.

really good stereo

My buddy has this in his car. I have something similar. Its a easy control-high quality stereo for a low price I recommend!

Fantastic

Can somebody say, MONEY WELL SPENT! I actually owned a pioneer head unit a couple years back and i wasn't too pleased with it. So this time around i really did some research and checked all customer reviews. Boy oh boy did i ever make the right choice with sticking with Pioneer. This head unit is very high quality for its price. I cant say enough about it. It's so intuitive but very easy to learn once you play around with it for about an hour or two. I made sure that it played everything that it said it could and therefore i gave it the works. I threw CDs at it, Flash drives, and my ipod. What actually surprised me was that my IPOD (with the usb cable) worked flawlessly. I saw some customer complaints that you couldn't use the Apple USB cable but mine worked without hesitation. Anyway, i could go on and on but if you're looking for an economical but very high quality head unit then get this one, you won't regret it.
