He saying his car's old player, not the new EONON player. Like proton car, got the brand clarion but you will never get any information for that model because it is like clarion OEM for proton cars.

guys, did anyone tried eonon 2din dvd type player yet? Or maybe 1 din dvd player? Is it good? I'm planning of buying it if worth the while.

No budget to buy the expensive ones unfortunately

wait I will keep u all update is if this HU is that good or not!

if u look at the 2nd photo and the manual's photo, u will have no doubt it is a EONON 837!
i dunno what's the cable in first photo. but the other cables and connectors look new!

We are not talking about the new player which is EONON, we are talking about his car's OEM player, the stock player = OEM player, get it?

ok. the 1st cable is for the TV antena....

W/ a friend help to install the HU. Here r the ok and problems:

ok:
1. SD card. hv not try the USB drive yet.
2 Bluetooth - H/P hand free & MP3 streaming from H/P is damn good!! (try w/ Samsung i600 & Nokia N73).
3. LCD Display is clear, if the movie can run.
4. Sound out put is good & clear too.

Problem:
1. Radio is not clear... may be need a booster.
2. CD/DVD player is damn fussy on the disc... suka suka it cannot run/read the disc!!! So cannot see moves aiyo... but once it play the video is good. Hv call the Seller he said he will fix it for me.
3. TV cannot see any thing yet.. as I hv not tune it right. but may pass it... watch astro better lah.

So ppl hold on 1st... let see how they gonna fix the 1st 2 problems.

Since I'm not intended to get monitor, I think I can bear with the choosing CD problem as everything will goes to SD card (large capacity, cheap and no skip disc problem will ever happen).

But radio is very important, sometimes keep on listen music also boring, need to listen to radio and it is important to have clear radio.

hehe... sorry, me wrong! nvr read line by line!!!

ya! radio is important. now got to find the way to fix the problem.
how to fix the radio booster? i nvr see one b4!
if there is grounding problem, will the booster help?

Hmm...in that case I'll wait for you guys test on the radio first. Is that any problem with the previous stock player? If stock player does gives the same problem then it is not the EONON player problem.

does this china brand unit have fan behind? I just bought a china dvd / mp3 / vcd unit, and when i power it up can hear fan noise.

Kinda loud as well if you turn the volume low, somewhat irritating!

my original player have some problems too but it is more serious in the new player. but when i pass some area it is ok. maybe those in stronger signal!

In that case, hoping to see you guys can resolve the radio issue. Saw a combo package in lelong, player and monitor RM9xx only.

so cheap!!! what package?
got the touch screen and bluetooth?
pls put up the link.

lol.. search for eonon in lelong... tons of package there...
i used to get tempted by eonon, but i so much satisfied with my pioneer...

Not a latest model of monitor. I'm in office now, can't access to lelong. You can just get into lelong and search for EONON.

With stock speaker, I don't think pioneer will perform better sound than EONON. Further more, spending nearly 1k just for a player is kinda waste to me, I rather spend on home theater system. And...one thing holding me back of branded player is...their design all looks very ugly to me, cannot match the car interior at all...

well.. different ppl have different taste. the thing holding be back not becoz it is fugly... but the motor for the LCD is usually fragile and warranty 3mths is a no no for me. and basically i use AUX in, so i dun really watch DVD in car. so no point changing it after reviewing..

^DVD+LCD Combo^

I'm not saying about the LCD, I don't watch DVD at car either because I'm driving alone all the time, what for to have DVD inside car .

What I'm saying is the player, spending 1k for a car player is really wasting money. Good player need to match good speaker, total up spend more than 10k, 20k just for car entertainment? I rather make a home theater with 42" LCD with surround sound at home enjoy DVD and music. After all, I'm not living inside the car, I live at home

Why use AUX? It's kinda funny to me, because you already got a player then still need to plug in another player (mp3, ipod) to play the music. I rather choose a player with SD card. With 4gb card, I can store a lot of MP3s inside.

Well, I think different people got different taste. For me, stock speaker with normal player that suit the function will do, I'm not aiming for playing music in a car, just listen only, so no point getting an expensive player which perform no different with a cheap player.

well, unless they support SDHC 32GB, no point for me using SD card. If you notice my setup at my signature below, you get the rough idea why i use Aux in.

I am not saying spending 1k for player is good or wasting. Some people willing to come out thousands of ringgit for ICE pleasure and some just accept what the stock player can do. so, as the normal user point of view, yes it is wasting money for upgrading things which you dont use that much or hardly appreciate it (like only listen to radio). So, as audiophile point of view, they want quality from their setup hence they will try to search for setup that suits them. but as for me, i am in the middle where i want quality at the lowest cost possible and yet try to expand the possibilities of playback.

I use ipod 30gb and it is played thru Harman Kardon ipod intergrator via Aux in and my Pioneer already has USB input. so from that point, i can already play most of the formats, be it from my ipod (Apple lossless,wav, etc), Pioneer (mp3, wma, CD, radio, USB) or Aux (via Harman Kardon's input jack).

So for me, if i ever want to upgrade, it will be DVD player with LCD and must have AUX in. or to minimize the hassle, that player must support USB & Ipod. Eonon has some player models which support iPod connection( and better.. with Bluetooth); which is why i kept tempted to buy, but its the quality that i am worry at holds me back from buying it. comparing this brand with other brands like Pioneer which cost least RM2k for DVD+LCD player or Alpine that cost even more, this is the cheapest alternative.

And changing players doesnt mean it has no difference compare to OEM. it must have difference, but it takes an audiophile to able to differentiate them.

Well...4gb will do for me, I don't need such large capacity since I won't be able to finish all the songs one straight and songs will get bored from time to time and will get update with new one.

To me it is wasting that's why I don't want spend too much on it. In fact my other interest get comments as wasting money too so I understand the feeling, obviously it depends on what you want and what you need.

LCD, it might looks good but since I'm not the one who enjoy it, I rather spend my money on other things.

So far, from what I observe is, with stock player change to a branded cheap player, it is hard to tell the difference, very hard for normal user like me. So I think it is acceptable. LOL

I do travel a lot, everyday 100km, at least 500km per week....The stock player serve me well but I don't want to keep too many CD inside the car, that's why I want to change the player but I'm not really into ICE mod, so cheapest solution will be enough for me.

yes, 4gb usually adequate for most user stuff around 500-800 songs. i too very lazy to change cd all the time and store them in the car... thats where my ipod comes in handy...

i understand its hard to tell the difference unless the speakers and amps are added as well. thats y i stated it need audiophiles to differentiate them.
