Q: Which MP3 HU is better - Sony CDX-MP70 or Pioneer/Premier DEH-7500/750MP?
Time to replace my 12-yr old HU, and I've narrowed it down to these
two. Any useful user experiences or opinions would be appreciated. Thanks, Pete |

I like the Pioneer HU's. Easy to use and they sound great. I have a
DEH-P740CD in my wife's car and an AVH-P6400CD in mine. Paul Vina "Pete" wrote in message ... Time to replace my 12-yr old HU, and I've narrowed it down to these two. Any useful user experiences or opinions would be appreciated. Thanks, Pete |

Pete,
After you're done hooking that baby up can you comment on your impressions of this HU? In particular I'm interested in: - Overall sound quality - Organic Display (what kind and size of images, video can you upload) - MP3 performance (track to track, folder 2 folder nav speed, playlist support, logical presentation of tags) - System Expansion (aux input with line level adjustment?) TIA! Paul, Thanks for the response, I've pretty much been buying Pioneer for all my car and home stereos and I don't see a reason to change now. I bought the Premier DEH-P750MP last night. Pete |

I purchased the pioneer over sony. I have been a looooong time fan of
pioneer. This is perfect for you though because I purchased the sony cdx-mp70 and had it for about 3 months before it was stolen. Still enough time for a long term opinion though. The only thing better about the sony is that there wasn't as long of a pause between mp3 tracks as there is with the pioneer. bout 5 secs. Sony's ability to eq your music is very limited. The Pioneers options go way beyond just adjusting base, treble and mid. Way beyond. and seperate eq control for front, rear and subs is amazing. I've ran pioneer headunits for 12 years now without disspointment. The sony thing was something I settled for with an online dealer. Hope that helps. |

Rich Barry Thousand Oaks, CA I have the alpine 9813, and would suggest going with the alpine camp. I compared the same brands and models you are checking out and the alpine completely blew away the competition. The playback is excellent (very short delay between tracks unlike pioneer's 4 sec wait) lots of nice processing features - parametric eq, x-over, and delays... the rca outputs can be run normally or in a 3 way mode... The interface is more classic rather than flashy, which is a big selling point to me. I personally can't get into the hyper active lightshows that dominate so many head units these days... Hope that offers some help. Tim Walter |
