Hi

I'm looking for a Headunit for my Mazda that play mp3 from a Harddrive on my trunk.

So Far I have find these two and they don't seem all that good.

Neo

Sony Xplod MEX-1HD

As a alternative if I can't find a good mp3 player with a harddrive I'm thinking to go with a headunit with a MP3 CD changer. this is the kind of Headunit I'm thinking to go for but this one doesn't have CD Changer support features.

Can some one help me out to find a good mp3 player with a Harddrive or a good mp3 player with CD changer support features?

thanks

Alex

Pioneer recently came out with a 10GB internal HD MP3 DIN headunit. A little pricey, and the pre-outs and other features are a touch on the weak side, but it does have the pioneer quality edge over the listed sony.

It will pull up on the pioneer website; I am too lazy to do a search.

It'd be nice if they made a Premier version of it, a little cheaper, with some decent power. Maybe this year's model, eh?

This is half the price, and will support a CD changer.

Poke around the site... its pretty easy to find what you're looking for.

damn that..i can get that for 1700-1800

scathcart

Congrats.

First off, it is the listed price from pioneer itself, obviously not the best price, and secondly, the prices stated were in canadian, since the poster lives in Toronto.

apreludem

and i can get the deh-p9400mp for like 700 and a cd changer for like 200

Do you want a pat on the back? A round of applause?

Did you read what I said? Pioneer only asks $890 for it US, you're not getting that huge a discount.

The prices I listed were Canadian.

apreludem

makes a lot of sense...i never said i was getting a discount...i said that that's what i can get it for here in texas!! wich is regular price, not a hook up!.

and no i dont want a pat on the back or a round of applause..dumbasses like you is what makes this forum suck.

scathcart

Oh, ok. That makes logical sense. You didn't read the links properly (which specifically showed a Canadian flag, and listed the prices as Canadian), and then start rattling off about how you can get such a better deal, and this is MY fault?

As to what makes this forum suck... I posted a response that gave the thread starter related information; you just came to park about the deals you can pick up. I have posted 2000+ technical emails into this section of the forum, and I am making it suck?

Bah, I don't care. I simply questioned your motives for posting. I'm sorry if sarcasm is lost on you.
Now that I've posted your mistake, you decide to try and blame "all of the problems on the forum" onto me.

Way to go, buddy. Now you really deserve that pat on the back.

scathcart

Suck, eh? Let's take a look at all the fantastic knowledge you have contributed to the forum in the past few posts:

Bet that'll help him plan his set-up.

Subforum: 2nd Gen Technical Advice.
You'll notice no where in the subforum title does it say: "My birthday wishlist".

This was a great addition to the forum. Definitely belongs in technical advice.

You should get into electronics. I love your method of determining the root of a problem: use the five basic senses... forget specific testing using tools designed for electronics.
A chimp could have reported the same data on your problem.
You misspelled "brake" and "hazards". We learned that in elementary school. Way to go.
By the way: "blinkers" would be your "Turn signals". Way to be Technical when asking for Technical advice.

A simple look into the easily available FSM would have pointed you on your way, but instead your lazy *** had to clutter up bandwidth.
Fantastic.
"Resoldered" is the correct spelling, and it's actually behind the driver's side kick panel, not under your bum.

Hmm... more bragging about your fantastic car audio deals. *pats apreludem on the head*
Was it really necessary to list that in your post?

We all needed to know the answer to THIS important question.



Anyway, I think we all need to give apreludem a round of appluase for his forum contributions today. B/c after all, without apreludem, this forum would surely go to hell!

apreludem

wow..hold on...i realized i sounded like a jackass and im sorry, and you are right i didnt look at the flag and such, but you have to understand that my motive was directed only for help. i wasnt trying to be some "hey look at me i can get better prices!!" i was just trying to help
sorry if i offended you

scathcart

Meh, no problem.
Just went into "owning" mode.

Damn guys, nice way to hijack a thread....

QBA,

check out www.crutchfield.com. they have a pretty good selection of products. they even had a smokin' deal on a Rockford Fosgate MP3 player, only $250 list was like $400.

Why not stop playing and just get what you know you should get, ALPINE. The setup with a deck and the changer could be had for about $600. Or Do the Kenwood Keg, price for that including a deck would start about $580. Both in my opinion better overall then any pioneer setup. Dont get me wrong, the 9400 is a very good deck, but for the money thier's better. And i'm not talking out my ***, I install this stuff for a living.

apreludem

well said..i like alpine cause of the way it looks too!
