Rep Power: 0 Well I was saving up for wheels and my parents were gonna help me get them.. but things just don't work the way you want them to if ya know what I mean.. so I'ma just go ahead and take the money I got and get a system... I'm going to get a Pioneer H/U either that one or the DEH-P9300.. Then get some Alpine Tweets and 6x9s with an Amp... then get 2 10in Subs with another amp and just bridge them? what do you guys thing? does that sound aight? Don't know much about audio so please any suggestions.

Rep Power: 0 My only beef with that unit, and all Pioneers in genereal, is if you are going to use the MP3 capability of the deck, it has long pauses between the MP3s. 3-5 seconds of delay between each song on random or sequential. If this doesn't bug you, I say it is a nice deck

Rep Power: 419 Just remember that the DEH-P840MP from Pioneers Premier line is a little better. I'de get that instead. Virtually the same, but more refined. That's what I have my eyes on.

Rep Power: 0 I got my Pioneer 8400 about a month ago and it is a super HU!!! I put Pioneer 1667s in the doors, I did not change out the rear or tweets on my EX because the rear is excellent with the stock Pioneer speakers and the stock tweets stayed so I could get a little twang in my music (Treble). I dynamatted everything and threw in 2-12" JL Audio Subs and two Rockford Fosgate Amps (500X and 200M). And Honestly, this sound system set-up is the best I've ever heard no matter what type of my ecclectic CD collection I throw in!!! Go by your personal preference and good advice about how to make your personal preference happen in your car!!! Good luck and have fun with it!!!
