Phoenix Gold Phorum

First Id like to say that Ive been pretty freakin happy with the deh-690ub prs.

Id like a head unit to go active but an older model. I need 3 preouts yadda yadda .

I cant swing a 880prs or anything right now so Im looking for some thing a few product cycles older that I might be able to get on the cheap.

Define cheap to you

how old are you looking for? i have a pioneer dex-p1r collecting dust if that interests you http://www.pioneerelectronics.com/PUSA/ ... -P1R?tab=B it worked great when i pulled it, except the amp turn on did not work. i just used a toggle switch kind of mickey mouse, but i had the head unit wired to it as well so i could listen to the system without the keys in the ignition.

Thats a nice freakin deck! A little older than I want though. Im lookin toward something that I can use cdrs and stufff with. I found a nice ass alpine deadhead for 50 bucks but it cant do cdr.

As for a price range it doesnt matter. Im looking for model numbers to see what I can find out there.

older high end eclipses really dominate in the active crossover category. Unfortunately their cd drives tend to act up as they age.

alpines 9813/9815 were pretty good as well, and go for cheap these days.. as well as the next gen after that.

I just pulled my Alpine 9815 out of my car last week, swapped in a Kenwood nav system. Have to say, the Alpine sounded better but I wanted Nav so oh well. Mine's mint , original box, manuals, remote..... low usuage. And yes it plays CD-R's and CD-RW's which I used all the time. Was going to flog it on Ebay for $200. Would rather sell it here to a phorum member.

I have the CD8053 for sale.

I really liked my DEX-P1r. It comes with a microphone that auto-EQ's your car. Works quite well, but not as good as a dedicated RTA/30 band setup. The crossovers, slopes, etc are very easy to set up as 3-way active.

It was a little hard to read in the sun, and the power supply hummed a bit in my car. Otherwise that headunit was perfect.

this is the same unit I now run in my car.. it hasnt exhibited any signs of a failing cd drive, atleast yet. been using mine for about two years now 100% active. Works great.

Pioneer Premier 860mp, they can be found for cheap(er) now. That is what I use for going active in my car. Besides the CD's not ejecting all the way I love the hell out of it!
