i saw some head unit at a walmart close to my house a while ago. it had an all black faceplate. its was just a blank black faceplate with a verticle button on each side, then when the power was turned on the stuff would show through and it would flip down to put the cd in.
does anyone know what im talking about?

that could defintely be it.....but i dont reccommend getting it cause he sound quality is terrible haha...but it def looks cool

 

wow, thanx for looking. that does look like what i described, but sorry thats not it.

it is all black just like the one u have the link too, but it has only the two verticle buttons on either side and you cant see anything but a black faceplate when its turned off, but when turned on everything shows through. it also flips down to put CDs in.
thanx for the link, they do have a lot of them, but i dont see it on there.
thanx

 

If you want it because its cheap probally better options sound wise.... Alpine and Pioneer and decks starting at 120 installed down here... Or you coould get a touch screen pioneer those are bad *** to bad they are over 1500

 

satoacs: I remember your first post here since I replied to that thread.

If you have $10K to spend on an audio system for your FD (which I doubt you have, BTW), why are you shopping for head units at Wal-Mart?

 

since you were at wal-mart it's probably the Jensen CDH-1000 or Durabrand or some crap like that. Don't think wal-mart sells the sony one. If you want a CD player like that I'd probably go with the Panasonic CQ-HR1003U Ghost series you'd get better sound at least. Of course the Sony probably sounds better haven't seen it but it's also quite a bit more. I'd still probably go with Alpine though, even the cheap alpine is better then just about anything they sell at wal-mart.

 

 

Nice one!

 

speed king: i wasn't shopping, i was just passing through that area and saw a whole shelf of different head units that were there, and that one was there.
"im researching costs and everything for a 94' rx7 that im planning on building a little later on"
i dont have 10K like u said, i dont have any. like i said in the first post im just researching the costs of everything.
lavs23: that Jensen was the one that i was looking for. i guess it didnt flip down, its shifted down . thanx for the help. i also like that panasonic, it looks good.

 

I didn't say it, YOU did.

ohh, i know i said that. i said "like you said", because you said that

 

 

I've never heard the Sony so I don't really know but I figure it's $100+ more for a reason. Panasonic did sound pretty good though.

 

i like the panasonic, ive heard it in an 80's vette, but i was like 10 at the time
sony is exensive compared to some others, but i dont remember how much of a difference it actually has.
which would be the best head unit for an FD, like the Jensen CDH-1000, with the best sound quality?

 

Sorry, but over the past 5-ish years, all sony's been interested in (in ICE anyway) is to shift as many weird-looking HU's to boy-racers as possible.

Basically, they look nice, but sound poo, and tend to literally fall apart!

 

oh ok, what would you say is the best brand with the "ghost" look?

 

There aren't many of them around really. I'd have to say panasonic by elimination. Other then jensen and sony I don't know any others that make them. I've always liked Panasonics never had one but they seem to sound pretty good in the cars that I've ridden in.

 

oh ok
thanx
