kenwood pwns pioneer.. always has IMO
If you aren't looking to make your car bulge in and out like something from the Looney Tunes cartoons while waking everyone for a mile radius, Pioneer isn't bad. Not all of us need to shatter glass with our systems.
The pioneers are good if you don't want to spend your time fixing every loose items in your car. I thought i got them all until I put a bass cd in the other day. that was a surprise at 2/3 volume. I forgot how strong they are.
ya w/e lol i here pioneer and all i hear is nails on a chalk board they might be a good "entery" level sub but the sound quality compared to the same priced subs differ greatly same with any of there prducts im sorry
but at one time they made a great product but now that you can buy a deck at toys r us there cheap china made crap
pioneer make bloody good headunits but thats about it.
wouldnt buy another of the amps or speakers again
yeah, i dont really like pioneer stuff.. i bought some jensen door speakers and they still sound hella good.. but all my subs and amps are kenwood.
i sill would say there deck are cheap pos nowadays there not in it for quality like they used to there in it for quantity and when i company goes stereo shop only to mass production they loose alot of that qualityQuote:

the best tnign for the head unit to have is the high voltage preout
my old Panasonic had a 9v preout and most pioneers at that price were in the 3v area lol
i mean i dont have anything to say right now lol im rolling a broke ass sony deck that only the fm works so i use my mps on a fm modualtor lol
but i have a nice infity 1052w 10" and polk audio 5 1/4's all around and its crisp lol i got a freebe lighting audio amp lol
but i use to use the sony p5's i had 3 10's and about 2700 watts
those things would make you nose tingle and your eyes watter lol

must admit the new pioneer hu's dont do much for me.
i run a dehp 80rs competition unit i scored bout 3 year ago and i luv it to bits.
also have an older kehp 9750 which if your up with pioneer speak is the old kehp1 comp unit but is a tape unit not a cd unit.
is retro fitted with the p1 pre amps and sounds mega
that'll be going back in the 3g.
along with the jbl subs and components
i just read this whole thread and i have to say that geddy's spelling has become worse. but i'd have to agree on the pioneer front.
as far as the rattlign on those bars... i would take em out... problem solved, just get a prop for when you open your trunk.

ive just been typing way to fast and i think my fingers got fat lol plus for the most part im pain med out lol so im not all here lolQuote:

but to be honest i could care less what other people hear as long as its clean inside lol
well most of these systems are nothing but a bunch of subs hooked to a walmart cd player and a thousand watt amp i've heard some hobbile shit around here the radio turned up into distortion and nothing but rattling shit lolQuote:

I still like the old bazooka tubes,they are really cheap now, but i've got an original, it was powered but i got rid of the power unit, they were really built well when they were new. you can tune them with a good crossover to get rid of the harmonics if you are careful. not an eq,but a good passive crossover.
oh def but sometimes those distorted setups dont sound bad on the inside
what i hate is people who jack up the bass on decks and think it slaps harder lol
i let the sub do the bass and the doors do the highs
and if i want mids i turn the door bass up a couple notches
i think thats what i'm doing in my 91ef. i have an old 12 disc clarion changer i would like to use again.Quote:
