hey, has anyone installed the avic-n1 "all-in-one" deck? its the one with the cd/dvd/navi all built in one din size deck. i can get a really good deal on it - under $2k taxes in. what i want to know is is the deck worth it?
thanks

vsokolov

I'm authorized pionner and I have avic-n1 for sale at $1400 plus shipping, and trust me the unit is hot.

Bxscig

Yeah that is what most ppl can do for you... $1400. I have a few co-workers planning on getting one in a few.

isr

vsokolov , did you have subs hooked up to the N1 unit? Reason asking is because the N1 only has 2V Pre-Outputs. I was looking to get the P7500 only because of the 5V Pre-Outputs... let me know if you can get me a P7500 for a good deal, thanks.

vsokolov

I have them now for sale shipped $1550

africanstar

the $2k is in canadian dollars. is that too much? hey vskolov, i heard that the fan in the deck is very loud-almost irritating. is that true?

vsokolov

you never hear fans, and how much $2k canadians into us dollars

africanstar

its about $1400usd (depending on the day)
are there any downfalls when it comes to this deck?

isr

yeah only 2V pre out's =\ ( for the Pioneer N1 )

africanstar

hey isr, i'm somewhat of a newbie at this. what does "2v pre out's" mean?
will i be able to add headrest monitors later on?

Laffinitup

2v pre-outs means a 2 volt signal coming from your RCA outputs. If you are into sound quality, you should get the avh7500. If you want a unit that does it all with no worries of high sound quality, go for the AVIC N1. Good luck! And yes you can install rear seat monitors later.

I just got this unit from Solo;ov and you wont regret this unit its hot. I will post some pictures later.

lilirish

i can get the unit for 1400 installed, but honestly how is the sound quality.

cubanlinx

Def post pics when you get a chance.

L337

Here are the pictures, some of the pictures my look crappy but its ok and Cuban the sound is awsome plus it comes with a crossover built in Avic-N1 is the way to go.

L337

bump i guess you guys didn like the pictures

cubanlinx

that looks really good now you are making me want it more then i did before , what is the unit you have right below the Avic and what is its function and how did you get a bracket to align perfectly with the space you installed it in?

cubanlinx

One more question - did you use another amp or the stock one?

africanstar

i got this deck too-it's great! the navi it right on and the sound great. i am getting some engine noise though and it's driving me nuts. also, the fan noise gets really irritating.
hey L337, what do you have under the avic? can you hear the fan nosie as clearly as i can?

L337

ok right below the AVIC i have and extra dvd, cd, cdr, mp3 player by boss wich is used to fire up the tvs in the back of the headrest. I also have 2 extra amps one for the 2 subs and the other for the speakers and africanstar i dont really hear the fan at all or any other noise trough the engine or so let me ask you did you install it yourself? or you have someone like a pro to do it. I would check all wires to make sure that they are connected right.

africanstar

hey l337, i got a pro to do it. i have an old 4ch alpine amp and the installer claims that because its so old the is no ground loop or something like that. i am going to get it rewired to run the door speakers off the deck instead of the amp and see what happens.

L337

and also make sure u have a clean ground (what i mean, is make sure that the pro sands a liitle of the paint, if there is any on the source he makes the ground connection) If they dont do it properly there will be a "whistle" when you accelerate thats irritating like you wouldn't believe. I also suggest to sauder all your connections not some wack tape job

Thats my $.02
