I just picked up a Nav-Conversion kit (Avelectironic) and am planning to install this, a Basslink and a DVD player.

I wanted some opinons on these models, anyone use them or know of them?

First 3 can be seen here:

Blaupunkt DVD-ME2

Farenheit DVD-5F

Farenheit DVD-11N


Also found these 2 Power Acoustik players on Ebay, not sure how different they are. But the cigarette lighter one looks like the better buy:

So any ideas, I wanna keep the price under 200, the lower the better, but I don't want to waste my money on a POS.

Any help is greatly appreciated!

 

out of that list i would have to say blaupunkt... but if you are interested i have a used icon-tv dvd100 (www.icon-tv.org for spec)... icon makes some of the best mobile video equipment out... pm me if you are interested i will give you a good price..

 

I almost bought the ME3. Looks like a great deal for a inexpensive DVD/CD/MP3 player. Plays DVD-R, CD-R and CD-R/W with on screen display (monitor obviously needed).

Get it here http://www.ikesound.com/category-category_id/69

ME2 - 150.00
ME3 (TV Tuner built in) - 155.00

People have good luck with Ike's

 

get a dvd player that is vacuum, not cd-rom computer type fold out tray--skips and many malfunctions....

dont bother with blaupunkt.... farenheit is much much better...
this is not an opinion, its my experience after actually testing and working with these products everyday....

 

Is Farenheit better in terms of video quality, or is it just less likely to break down?

I've never heard of them before, so I'm just being overly cautious.

 

its alot better than decent...and less likely to break down than the blaupunkt

dont worry so much, theres warranites..

 

If you can, find a DVD player that displays the MP3 ID3 tags. This will make your experiene that much better. Unfortunately, I don't know which ones will do this.

 

Ya, I definitely want that. I think most of the farenheit ones do that. Maybe the Icon-TV one too, but havent heard back from sawhite yet.

 

If you are planning on playing mp3, make sure you get a player with a memory wire. Seems like all of those listed dont have a memory wire. It gets really annoying starting from the beginning everytime you start your car.
