Are you sure? Acuras OEM parts site says Pioneer (Unless thats only the 6DVD Changer) but I think they are integrated.

See link: http://www.acuraoemparts.com/delray/...All&vinsrch=no

On the TSX it says Panasonic (MATSUSHITA): http://www.acuraoemparts.com/delray/...All&vinsrch=no

This dosnt make scents to me, 'cause isn't ELS Panasonic? WTF?

Yes it's Panasonic. Read this article about Elliot Scheiner and Panasonic creating the ELS Premium Sound System which is in the RDX.

Hum... I hope so, I've been trying to see if I can install the TSX USB adapter into the back of my navi, I was a bit hesitant since the TSX was Panasonic and the RDX (i thought) was Pioneer. But if they are both Panasonic I'm at least a bit closer to figuring it out lol.

I'll pull out my stereo tonight and see whats writen on it.

Silicon...just let me clarify that this is specifically for the Tech Package. If you have the RDX non-tech I'm assuming it's still a Panasonic but have no idea.

Yea tech... Dunno why the acura site says Panasonic but w/e. I bought the Honda FIT USB kit, going to see if I can plug it into my RDX. Only $75.00 so if it dosnt its not much of a problem.

I'll post pics as I said, but I'll take it all apart at once.

In Tech RDX Audio unit model
Pioneer dvz-mg6067 (USA) / mg6167 (Canada)

I have full service manual with circuits drawings.

MMike1981

ok and if u had that manual you would knw a few things - the AMP IS PANASONIC, the head unit itself is a pioneer unit.

the base model AMP is pioneer, one would think the speakers would be to, but no speakers are exposed in the RDX, the last gen TSX had them exposed in the trunk so I could confirm they were in fact Pioneer...anyone seen the magnet of an RDX Speaker for direct confirmation of what it is exactly?
