Been looking around for a new HU recently..currently shortlisted these few

Kenwood KDC-MP2032
Kenwood KDC-MP532U (with USB input i think)

Pioneer DEH-6800MP

Which is the best buy? Also, what are the prices on these things? i only managed to look them up on the net..havent been to the accessories shop to quote the price yet

my budget is around RM500-700

pioneer deh-6850MP

6800 is for US market
6850 is here
the radio frequency range is different

bro, wat is mentioned by N3 is correct....hehehehe .....

anyway, just would like to add if u are buying from an online seller, u could probably find those HUs cheaper compared to accessories shops .......I have compared some pioneer HUs price sometime ago and I realised that this is normally true, even until now, normally a same HU model difference would be between RM100-200... I meant the difference between buying from online sellers and shops...

but of course, there is a plus and minus for buying from online and accessories shops...hehehe ....cheers and happy hunting...

I wonder where else can we buy these stuff online... the only one I know is SONY Style... most of other place would require a credit card...

Used to have them... but now these plastics tend to cripple my budget a lot...


If I know someplace to search and buy online for Kenwood and Pioneer... would like to try too...

a good place to look for is forums like ZTH (marketplace) and LYN (garage sales) .....thats where I roughly made my comparison dear fren.....

better if possible do COD, if cannot then think of courier or postage.....good luck....

if you want sound quality, go for eclipse, there are CD1000, CD2000...
CD1000 ~ 600
CD2000 ~ 800

i would say pioneer even 4950 model cannot beat the cd 1000 in term of sound quality. but if you want more features pioneer got alot , but what for ? HU is for good sound productions. kenwood worse than pioneer.

i recommend you get the CD2000, it is really a nice HU with clear sound even i personally get cd1000 only because of budget limitation and it sounded good.

actually nakamichi is the best for SQ followed by eclipse. you know toyota harrier, and some high end cars using eclipse HU, that's why their stock ICE sound clear and good.
