Hey people..

i err having a Pioneer 2950 now.. found a buyer so thought of adding a few bucks & change to the new Pioneer 4040..
the thing is.. until now i'm still now should i change to Pioneer 4040 or should i consider Kenwood..

some say kenwood nice.. some say pioneer nice.. my friend say if want change pioneer.. change to version6 & above.. but they're all so expensive... -.-

what is the difference??

I did compare pioneer 4050UB with Kenwood 436U before. End up i bought Pioneer 4050UB cos it gave more power & solid bass. rclxms.gif Interface also Pioneer win lo. Kenwood 1 looks like outdate design. I suggest u go to shop test sound 1st. Each ppl ll having diff taste.

6 series is the highest range. thats y your friend recommend u to take 6series instead of lower. but it doesnt differs much unless you are a ICE player. for me, 1050 is more than enough.. hahahaha

Pioneer Malaysia (check out the unit)

OR

Kenwood KDC-MP5033U
Lowyat.NET -> [WTS] Kenwood KDC-MP5033U (MP3/USB Slot)

to answer your question... HU has nothing to do with the choices of SQ or SPL... but you need to choose a good ones so that it plays the exact way the sound engineers and producers wanted you to listen... be it SQ or SPL... so for your choice of 50-50 SQ and SPL... any good HU would do the job... the rest is depends on your tuning skills...

but still anyday i would take a pioneer over a kenwood or a sony...

and sony's SQ is no where to be "wow" about...

cheers...
