Post Jensen 7" touchscreen in-dash, PICS INSIDE

Jensen VM9511TS 7" motorized touchscreen DVD player. This was the best Jensen unit out a few months back ( I think they came out with a new unit since then). Anyways, this unit includes a TV tuner, DVD playback feature, NAVI ready (just needs the navi brain), plays SD cards, DVD cd's,
mp3 cd's..you can view pictures, etc.

This is nearly brand new...was installed back in January, but my car was hit in the front shortly after and was in the shop for almost 4 months...so this has been used for maybe 20 hours all together. Furthermore, I have been very particular with the screen, and it has no scratches, and neither does the rest of the unit. This comes with 2 controllers, preamp's for your subs, and a hook up box for your IPOD (Ipod hook up cables ARE included with the unit to get you up and running; jensen J-link cables also included), and other A/V units.

This thread shows some crappy-quality pics of the unit in my car when it was first installed, nothing's changed since then: http://www.srtforums.com/forums/show...light=vm9511ts

I bought this back in January for 549.95 from Sounddomain.com.

Anyways, here are all the specs (copied from sounddomain):
The VM9511TS is the most complete all-in-one mobile theater from Jensen, and then some. The VM9511TS can play DVD, CD, or MP3 discs, send a second source to a back-seat screen, and read your SD (Secure Digital) memory cards full of MP3/WMA/JPEG files. Full touch panel control with on-screen menus and icons makes operation a breeze. The VM9511TS is a single DIN receiver that incorporates an AM/FM tuner with a DVD/CD/MP3/WMA player, a UHF/VHF TV tuner, front-panel SD memory card reader, a 7" motorized widescreen display, and 20 watts x 4 internal power. The VM9511TS also has an auxiliary A/V input, jLink iPod input cable with A/V dock connector, rear video output, and 6-channel preamp outputs. Multi-zone control allows for more than one audio/video source to be enjoyed by front seat and back seat passengers simultaneously. You can even add a full GPS navigation system or satellite radio tuner (available separately) for more options. A full-function A/V remote is included, as well as a simplified "Kid Zone" remote and an on-glass TV antenna.

And here is the CNET review (copied from CNET):
The Jensen VM9511TS does about everything an in-car media receiver could possibly do. From its ability to play nearly every modern audio-format (including MP3, WMA, XM Satellite, and AM/FM radio and SD-card files), to its crisp DVD playback via a 7-inch widescreen monitor, to its TV reception and ability to act as a giant iPod, this is one heady head unit. Like the Jensen VM9510TS, its older sibling, the VM9511TS has two display interfaces. One is a blue, backlit dot-matrix LCD display, which is visible only when the unit is in stowed-away mode. The other is a pop-up TFT touch-screen that emerges from its single-DIN body with the whirr of a motor.

In stowed-away mode, the unit looks like a fairly commonplace stereo receiver--the subtle presence of an SD card slot is the only clue to its uberfunctionality. Even in regular, single-DIN configuration, there is still little to point toward the VM9511TS's usability. Two joystick ***** on either end of the faceplate and six preset buttons can be used to control the tuner and to navigate CDs, but there are no markings for the standard audio controls (play/ pause/ skip/ search). Users will have to experiment with the right-hand joystick to work out how to skip or pause tracks. (We found that pushing it upwards sometimes had the effect of pausing the CD, and sometimes it didn't.)

The backlit LCD display provides only track number and playing time for CDs, and no ID3 information is shown for MP3 or WMA CDs. But these gripes are mere bagatelles--with a press of the "open" button, the true character of the VM9511TS begins to emerge.

A cluster of logos on the bottom of the touch screen reveals an array of features about this receiver. It can handle MP3s, WMAs, CDs, DVDs (video and R/W), and auxiliary inputs. It is "Made for iPod" and is XM-Satellite ready. It plays audio in Dolby Digital Pro-Logic II at 60 watts per each of its four channels. And that's not all. A glance at the VM9511TS's standalone media module (through which it outsources all its media connections) shows that it can be hooked up to a TV antenna (included with the unit), as well as Jensen's Nav 100 car navigation system (sold separately). Also compatible is Jensen's optional iAux-3 module, which enables the connection of any portable MP3 player via an auxiliary jack and ports for composite audio and video.

Those who are going to invest in the Jensen VM9511TS multimedia receiver will have to set aside a day to install it. We connected the system to up to four main speakers, but there are also dedicated RCA cables to hook up an additional six speakers via an external amplifier, including a subwoofer and two rear surround-sound speakers. Other connections include provision for wireless headphones, two additional rear screens and a back-up camera connected via the reverse gear in the shifter.

Perhaps the most innovative feature of the Jensen VM9511TS is its dedicated iPod interface, which allows all iPod models to be connected and played via the head unit while simultaneously being recharged. With our iPod Nano connected in audio mode, controls on the MP3 player itself were disabled. Control of all functions devolved to either a virtual iPod dial on the touch screen (our preferred interface) or one of two remote controllers.

Using the touch screen's wheel, users can select play lists, artists, albums, or songs in a similar fashion to using the iPod itself. Using the remote control is a little less intuitive and requires reference to the manual to establish that the forward search button activates the iPod menu screen and the skip buttons scroll through the options.

One bug that we found with the iPod interface was that the unit sometimes failed to recognize our iPod when we plugged it in--a problem that we finally remedied by pushing the reset button on the side of the media module.

The video features on the VM9511TS are impressive. The unit has a versatile 16-position tilting screen, and it offers video playback in a range of aspect ratios, including standard 4 x 3, widescreen 16 x 9, and "cinema" configurations. Picture quality is good for DVDs, although we had difficult getting a clear TV picture with the 16-inch rabbit-ear antennae, despite being on the 5th floor in a static office building; getting a clear episode of Oprah will prove to be even more trouble when on the move. A secondary tuner module enables the VM9511TS to be hooked up to a cable or satellite signal.

The VM9511TS is a high-end media receiver that will open up a world of in-car media options for those willing to take the time to install it.

I can copy the receipt if need be to prove what I paid originally.

PICTURES:




Also, just to prevent any further confusion, here are large pictures of the open view of both models...you can read right on their screens that some of the things written on the 95 is not on the 93 (dolby digital, mosfet, RMS wattage, navigation ready, etc.) and other obvious differences are visable.

VM9511TS---This is the unit I am selling

VM9311ts---This is NOT what I am selling, this is an older model


Hope that helps!

Looking for 420 shipped obo!!

the stupidity of people on forums is baffling; yet another thread basher that is comparing apples to oranges...The guy's just mad because he lowballed me and I told him I was looking for a little more.

Thanks for the support speedbikelvr.

Guys, i'm not trying to rip anyone off here. I am selling THIS MODEL for a very fair price. Sure, there are other models that are cheaper. If you want them, then by them. But if you want a great head unit with great features at a very affordable price, this is the one you want!
