Default Out with the pioneer nuke, in with the xplod console

I took out the pioneer "warhead" and installed this. Took three days to complete and i think it sounds pretty decent. Looks good to me too but then again, I thought my last setup looked good Enjoy!

Very nice and most impotantly clean! But to be honest you could've done alot better then Sony subs and amp. In the elite car audio world, sony stinks and their car audio products are known to literally explode!

I seriously doubt your very knowledgable about your shiet NissanZ, I'm not dissing on his install but if you knew a grains worth about car audio Sony HUs tend to break down most of the time and their subs sound like fart, and their speakers lack clarity and bass. But if Blue Dream likes it more power to him, its all about what suits you. BUt dont sound like an idiot because you seriously dont know what your talking about. Go to www.elitecaraudio.com and www.caraudioform.com and do a search for Sony products you'll find that they aren't even considered the middle class in quality and performance.

Sony Mobile heads and cd changers - ES stuff is great in my opinion. I had one in my last system. But I have to agree that Sony as a company is probably single handedly responsible for flooding ALL markets (Audio/Video/Mobile) with the greatest amount of consumer-grade, non-recyclable, well-planned obsolescent crap this side of the "Audio Stores" on Canal Ave here in NYC.

So yeah...What he said.

Well, their digital cameras are pretty good. Mine has now lasted me three years and still takes pictures like it was brand new.

I have a Sony CDX-MP 70 and it sounds and looks really good with MB Quarts and fostgate amps and woofer. I don't know about the Sony AMPS and speakers since I'm not into the colorful stuff but I think you get what you pay for.
