Is $259 for this unrealistic
double din
So I had this on ebay and it sold for $250, now this douche pulled out and I'm asking for that here. Is $250 unrealistic? I bought this for like $550 a couple of years ago and new it goes about the same.
Sorry for the vent, thanks for the honest feedback!

yeah everything works correctly. I guess maybe it is the age, but there isn't many double dins you can buy for $250 even used...it has video in, ipod support, blah blah.
Thanks for the opinion guys!!

Arguably one of the best sounding double dins by a some car audio guys is a Panasonic: bottle head
Denon headunits and Mcintosh amps are awesome, but their also not very mainstream. I would take a Mcintosh over an mtx, jl audio, alpine amp any day. (just not in the budget)

I can't say I disagree with you, Panasonic is definitely not an out there brand. But, to say almost all only good double dins are made by alpine and pioneer is a sweeping statement. They are more mainstream to say the least like you can find them at best buy, etc. However, I believe Eclipse and Kenwood also make very nice double dins.

Alpine and Pioneer make MOST of the double din headunits out there in general. So yeah can't argue with you on the MOST part.
Comparing Kenwood against an Alpine with imprint really isn't fair because we are comparing headunits, not sound processors, etc. (I will say that kenwood definitely doesn't have the sound processor add-ons that alpine offers) Additionally, imprint is a either love it or hate it for some people.
I like my alpine 9887 but at the same time I like how some of the older higher end pioneer model sound. Not a big fan of the newer pioneer's looks but that is completely subjective.

All that either/or, this/that, good this/bad that, yada yada bullshit is why I'm just gonna go with a touchscreen carputer with a custom front end and good sound car and audio processor.

Good luck with that! You have to post pics when it's all said and done.

I'm not really worried bout that to be honest. I'm going to swap to a Firebird dash, and then go with a 10.4" touch screen and custom make a bezel, so no worries. And, I definitely will!
