GnatGoSplat Posted May 16, 2006 Report Share Posted May 16, 2006 The old DEH-P860MP I used to have had 6.5V preouts. Anyway, I got my PAC SWI-PS today, so I installed the DEH-P680MP. Very slick HU and sounds very good, even through the convertible's shitty stock speakers. I have the CD-IB100 iPod interface so I plugged that in and hooked up a 4G iPod. The 680MP is a million times better controlling the iPod than the 7600MP was. It's a very slick setup! Pioneers are definitely a really good buy for the money.

firefighter_0029 Posted June 3, 2006 Author Report Share Posted June 3, 2006 Cool, glad ya like it! Just so happens I got my DEH-P680MP yesterday to put in the convertible. Haven't installed it yet, still waiting on a PAC SWI-PS. I have it hooked up for bench testing and looks good so far though! I bought a Monte today and I was wondering how you connect it in? Does it go in the CD changer port or something? Also where did you get it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GnatGoSplat Posted June 3, 2006 Report Share Posted June 3, 2006 It connects to the remote input jack on the back. It's a tiny jack the size a headphone jack. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Z34-5speed Posted June 6, 2006 Report Share Posted June 6, 2006 I had a pioneer headunit in my old 92 Ranger. It was a nice unit but it doesn't even compare to the Clarion i have in my 92Z34. Kyle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
93z34 Posted June 15, 2006 Report Share Posted June 15, 2006 Damn, all y'all spent more than me. I have a JVC ElKameleon H/U that I got on the block for $20. Works perfectly... and sounds damn good for the price. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
firefighter_0029 Posted June 15, 2006 Author Report Share Posted June 15, 2006 Except JVC's don't pick up crap on the radio. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GnatGoSplat Posted June 15, 2006 Report Share Posted June 15, 2006 My JVC has good reception. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
firefighter_0029 Posted June 15, 2006 Author Report Share Posted June 15, 2006 You probably live in the city or something?? I had a brand new JVC with a new antenna and it still didn't pick up as good as my Pioneer does. Not that I listen to the radio much just when I do I like it to work.

GnatGoSplat Posted June 15, 2006 Report Share Posted June 15, 2006 Nope, not in the city, but I live just outside of city limits. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had a brand new JVC with a new antenna and it still didn't pick up as good as my Pioneer does. Not that I listen to the radio much just when I do I like it to work. I love to DX once in a while. I have noticed that Pioneers get insane reception. B9 Tribecas get insane reception as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
93z34 Posted June 16, 2006 Report Share Posted June 16, 2006 I've never had reception problems.... hell, I pick up stations further out that I could factory, so I'm happy... then again, it really doesnt matter, seein' as how I rarely, if ever, listen to the radio.... pretty much all my music is chopped and screwed.

19Cutlass94 Posted June 16, 2006 Report Share Posted June 16, 2006 The only bad thing Ive noticed about Pioneer's is that if the cd is dirty or has a scratch, youll be playing the remix version. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, if you're like me and don't know what a CD case is, Sony is the way to go. Their error correction is second to none. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
19Cutlass94 Posted June 17, 2006 Report Share Posted June 17, 2006 I have a cd case, I duno how the cd's got scratched, but the Pioneer picks it up. Maybe I should just try cleaning them. speaking of this, isnt there some kinda cd that you can put in there that cleans the internals? I know they have em for other things but would it work for cd players? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
