hehe cheers guys, 60w X 4 aint to shabby for a head unit, i'm interested to see what the difference in sound quality is compared the the sony 1 i have just now.

Andy thats a fuckign awesome unit, i should know i had onesmileys/smiley17.gif and the sound difference from your sony should be unbeleivable i went from a sony to that and the difference, even before setting the EQ or anything, was unbeleivable!

Excelent, i have butterflies in my stomach thinkin bout it now. haha. Why did u get rid of it Scott?
Scott
21st January 2005, 02:55
i got it for 60 quid due to a major fuck up at work so took my chance. A friend then offered me 150 quid and a slightly lesser model and i couldnt say no, then i bought the pioneer flip out screen. Still say that bad boy is the best i have owned

haha, that's quality. Fitted it 2day. Your right about the sound quality. Only iv'e got the age old problem of the settings being lost when the power is off.

Which 2 wires is it i need to swap over?

red and yellow.
Think you can just pull them apart on alpines too...
attach a yellow to a red and vice versa..
