Best bang for the buck!?
What sort of system do you have? bang for the buck, No money limit, bone stock, or low cost low SQ?
I've done 100's of installs over the last 45 years. I must say that the install in my Yaris is the best bang for the buck, I've found yet! Cost was under $250. and included a Pioneer HU and Speakers. The HU is a real gem. Not only does it have an excellent tuner, but it's also HD. It has a USB port that reads a 500 gb hard drive, full of WAV files, at ultra fast speed. And It cost me $110. off Amazon. The four speakers ran $130. from onlinecarstereo.com The only change I would have liked to see was the USB on the back. http://www.pioneerelectronics.com/PU...rs/DEH-X5500HD http://www.pioneerelectronics.com/PU...ries/TS-D1702R Last edited by UberSilver; 02-07-2013 at 11:58 AM. |

That head unit looks exactly like mine, and yeah, I love it. have that with Polk Audio db6501 components in the front doors, a 120 watt Pioneer amp for them under the passenger seat. and a JBL 8" sub with a 250 watt rms amp for it in the trunk. I'm happy

Wow, nice receiver! Like that the HD is built in. I'm running a Boss bv9963i that I bought for $26 and change. My friend called me right away and I bought 2 units. It was a typo on Walmart website but they honored it so I have a in dash 7'' DVD player for cheap. The rest of my door speakers are stock and do the job. In the back I have 2 volfenhag 12s in a sealed box ap2000 profile amp. Way too obnoxious in this little car. Guess I'm getting old. Profile amp has been very trusty for being a not top brand. Ordered 2 860w infinity 8s and will do a clean install on the amp and mounted flush into cargo area and will keep spare tire in its location also. I'll snap pics when done and post. Too many other projects right now.
