Help choosing receiver

[Corollacrazy42]

My friend is looking for a headunit but im not sure what is good for the money. I have Kenwood, so i suppose i would sudjest that as an alternative. But what do you guys think?

He has 200 dollars to spend on this. thx in advance

kenwood sux. i had one myself and yea it sucked

[Corollacrazy42]

ok haha.. thats fine, i would just like to know what is good then. The kid thats buying one isnt exactly an audiophile by any means, he just thinks its a CD Player.

Go for the Pioneer DEH P4700MP but the harness and hardwiring it is going to cost a little extra

if he's new to aftermarket radios...i see pioneer's a little complicating but that's if he wants to get into tuning the sound right. either way...a harness should be like 20bux, it is here.

well thing is the kid is my friend so ill be helping him with most of it. The thing already has its own factory amp and some pretty nice premium infinities so it already sounds pretty good for being stock. But im going to be helping him make it sound good, and installment so that not a problem. I know all about the harnesses and such we got that already and the dash kit.

But you guys think pioneer is the best standard choice?

My vote goes for pioneer too. The higher end ones have a better EQ if he wants to fine tune his music. If he's fully into that, maybe an alpine?

If he is on a budget he can get a Kenwood, but if he wants to spend he should get a Alpine or Pioneer.
