I understand that now car audios has plug in MP3 thumb drive.

But what can you do with it,....? What user friendly or interesting features it has?

1. Can it play songs randomly from the Plug in Thumb Drive / USB?

2. Can you store different types of songs by different folders in the USB ?

3. Can you select through your car MP3/CD Player by folders that you store in USB/Thumb drive?


I am looking for one with decent sound quality and some useful features.....
Appreciate some inputs here..... smile.gif

Thanks for your tips


Added on July 26, 2008, 9:15 pmHey man....I think i like your recommended DEH3050 unit,...I had just downloaded the user manual,..and i think it has the basic features that i want....If the price is RM 400XX i will start saving money now and buy one or two months later...probably the price drops even further...

Just to share with you guys.... i found a site that you can download damn alot of different type of Car audio brands user manual...

Hope this site is useful to u guys biggrin.gif

RM 450 is the HU alone, not inclusive shipping charges (unless you COD). Installation + workmanship RM 20 +/- 30 only.

You can pm yohannes for further details about Pioneer HU.

- SOund quality, not really good in this but the best for Audio CD is Alpine

- Features, well current Pioneer 2008 line up seem to had lots of feature for sound quality purpose.

- User friendly is still Pioneer thumbup.gif
bengchua
anyway sound quality is not so important because its a budget unit, comparing to radio quality sure good enough.

Most important for me is user friendliness and reliability of the set.

ok, pioner is good HU.

cd only, cost me RM 900.. guess what sony is that.. smile.gif

Should be some high end stuff.

Well some ICE people will indulge on high level, Alpine F1 series for RM 2xxx, the best thing is CD playback only + fader control and balance only. No EQ setting (if not mistaken from a F1 user)
nd_4ever
JVC & Kenwood latest headunits are all USB slot ready as well. Been using both brands on my rides since last year & i would say value for money as well. As for sound quality, i still prefers Pioneer higher end models like 6xxx series & above. smile.gif Good luck in hunting a new HU.

Hi Jimmy,

Do you have any idea where to get Pioneer 3050 model at RM 450 in Penang?
I just checked out one shop in Butterworth,...that idiot wanted to charge me RM 650. Cut throat
jimmylim85
in penang most of them selling Pioneer Malaysia stock. In internet, most of it is water set thats why is cheaper yet still obtain 1 year warranty.

Yes.

Same says it came from Pioneer factory in Malaysia but not under Pioneer Malaysia.

Is more like Original vs AP set.

RM 450, it worths it. Save rm 200 for the same thing and only warranty procedure is albeit different.
