Opinion needed for this MP3 player unit

MMamdouh · Post by **MMamdouh** » Wed May 10, 2006 6:16 pm

i am thinking of getting an MP3 player but due to the lack of knowledge about them i'd like to have your opinions to help me here.

i saw this PIONEER MP3 player today and checked its speks on the internet but i am afraid i don't know much about it so i can't tell if those features are good or not.

i only want a unit that got the standard issue features that should be their for a decent MP3 player, does this unit fall into this category? is it missing a "must have" feature" or so??

I always liked Pioneer so, I think it's a decent unit.

It's a simple unit.

But when I buy a new head unit I always looks for the 50Mosfet or higher and the EEQ easy equalizer, this means that you get 5 preset EQ and one costum EQ that you can do yourself.

If I would you I would buy the DEH-P4650MP, I installed one for my friend and the sound was crystal clear.

But that's my opinion.

thanks for your opinion man... i already got a 9 band PIONEER eqalizer with sub. control so having a sophesticated eq. in the unit is not that important for as i got it covered.

most probably i will go for that unit if i got a fair price for my KEH-4025 PIONEER cassette... any body else got more feedback to add??

How much you paying for it. I think you might find thier are new better pioneers coming out for around the same price.

I definatley say go pioneer, but i believe you should look a bit further and see what you find.

I think you should check the bigger amp too, gonna sound more clear and for sure you will get more bass, well for the tweeters it will sound more clearer but how many tweeters do you have in the car.

I have 6 in the front and the sound is very nice but very high so don't turn on the sound too much you will hurt your ear with the high tunes.

currently i have no tweeters... only the ones in the speakers - nothing in the front at all - and i am considering a 150watt x 2 amp.

I'd say for that price it's well worth the money, I payed a similar amount of money (very slightly less than that) and its a JVC 180W split 4-ways. and it doesnt read MP3 or WMA. and to add to that, the volume control is REALLY annoying!! (it has buttons instead of the turnable knob. lol

Ohh ok well I think you should get a couple of tweets, what are hooking up to the amp?

Put a Pioneer Head unit.
With only one power amplifier you can move all speakers (mids, tweters). Example to 4 6.5 speakers (4 ohm each, 220max watts.) Put a 2 channel power amplifier because you can down the ohms. at 2 ohms x channel. And receive all the power from the amplifier.
