whats up guys i was looking to get a new deck/head unit for christmas. i have a sub, amp and a box that i will get installed when i get my new deck. any ideas on a good deck? its for a 2002 tl non navi btw.. thanks

 

What features are you looking for? What's your budget? Do you just simply want something that's going to play CD's, or are you looking for USB, Ipod, navi, what? That'll help people make suggestions...

 

just looking for the basic cd and hopefully a usb so i can play my iphone with it. and for price i would say about 100 to 200. thanks for the help

 

If you're looking to use your Iphone, I'd look for an Alpine. They're extremely fast with Ipod controls, and solid decks. The only problem is that the EQ is weak until you get up the 9887, which costs quite the pretty penny... The 9884 is a solid choice, but if you can spare the change, the 9886 is a much better choice...

 

Stay away from Eclipse. Although they make some of the best sounding decks IMO, their Iphone interface is buggy. Eclipse said they are working on an update to get it to work with the 3.0 update, but it's been quite a few months.

 

Thanks guys i went to bestbuy yesterday and was lookin around, i think i might go with a sony since i know someone who has a nice one. ill let you know what i end up getting

 

1. Don't go to Best Buy. They're going to rip you off and do a shoddy job, if you're lucky. More than likely, there will be a fire hazard in your dash, and the deck will only kinda work.

2. Top of the line Sony is alright, but you can do much better for the money. Pioneer, Alpine and Kenwood are 3 brands that I've run personally, and I love them all. I would start there, and find the ones that have the features you want/need.
