Hi folks, im planning to upgrade my car audio as im still using the standard oem radio and honestly, it has the worse sound. Can please recommend the best, affordable, touch screen, good sound, good branded car sound system? I have used pioneer for years but the price nowadays is getting way crazier. So im thinking of other brands that supports android. No china brand sets please


Brand i have in mind..........

Kenwood
Pioneer
Sony

majority droids are cena devices put branded sticker

What is your budget? Can google Pete's Car Audio as he has a range of budget to cater for customers.

What car model your using? If your using a cheap budget car upgrade sound proof and speaker first. A lot of time due to low or non sound proof material around the door, interior or speaker area causing poor sound quality.

Usually for my cars if radio/HUD no spoilt -> Check/upgrade speaker quality & reinforce sound proof first

After that if still not satisfied only upgrade the HUD. Android player i got bad experience as i listen to radio a lot. the fm receiver is bad even i used RM1k+ android player also no good, in the end buy back Pioneer 2xxx series player settle everything and more better sound quality even without adding DSP or Amp.

Is Old Wira Blaupunkt good? Can buy one from scrapyard. Can it compatible plug in to modern car like Axia?
