Hello all, i have ordered a new car and I will need a new double din nav unit

I would like:
Nav
XM
Android Compat



I normally buy Eclipse but they are now dead

The Pioneer Appradio looks good but it seems it sucks without a phone hooked up and no XM
Who has good/easy to use nav nowadays?

Any cool features?

 

What's up bro?? What did you buy?

What kind of android capabilities do you want out of it?

 

Kenwood DNN990 .. it IS Android !

 

yea ive been researchin more and that one looks awesome, out of my price range tho.

Maybe the DNN770HD?

How are the Alpine units?


As far as the rest of the setup:
Morel Maximo components up front(this i am not set on, want a good set under 200 lemme know!)
some Pioneer 6x9 fillers in the rear
PPI P900.4 amp
12guage wire/raammat damping/and thas about it



I have a 2014 Challenger RT on the way

i work at Chrysler now so it was the only car with a manual i wanted

 

Look at the 890- maybe then, or you can take my 9990 off my hands.

Ditch the rears and invest that into the front.

 

what comps under 250 then(maybe more if a 2channel amp is much cheaper than the 4chan i picked)?

run a 2channel amp? stock rears off the HU?

 

$1500 for everything
Double Din Nav HU
Comps up front
Amp
wires(4channel RCA and speaker wire)
Metra 95-6511
Pac Rp4-ch11
Metra 40-EU10
Backup Cam

what should i do

i have a 10" arc audio sub and amp for the bass already

 

I bet I could make that work. When you're ready to pull the trigger, we can talk.

 

ill get the car next month

we'll talk after racewars

 

I shall still be here !

 

I don't like to jump on someone elses thread like this, but I saw little point in making a new thread. What would you guys recommend for a double din with:
-AUX in
-GPS
-Bluetooth hands-free phone operation (not necessary but would like it)

 

So i think ima get a Kenwood unit

either the DNX890HD or the DNN990HD.

****s up my budget but thats okay

no rear fillers

im thinking 500 for the components and amp? im sure i can find a good used 2channel amp for pretty cheap - so most of the money can go towards some mid-high end 2way(not sure i have the skills to tune a 3way) components. i believe an 8in mid fits in the door as well

what are some options?

 

I think my DNX9990HD is pending a sale, but that woulda definitely saved ya some coin. Both are great units, but if you're not gonna utilize the WiFi much then the 890 might be a better option.

I am sure something in Focal or Helix should fit that budget.

 

Are the DNX890HD and the DNX9990HD very different?

I see some decent deals for the 9990HD online.

How are the map updates? Easy to do?

 

There are some differences, but not a tremendous amount. I was only offering mine up since you could have had a good bit of warranty left on it.

Yea, pretty simple.

 

Arc Audio 6000's any good? Pretty cheap set on ebay right now

vs. Focal (which one? i see too many and they are confusing )

vs. CDT HD62

vs. ?


i'll start searching for a used 2 channel amp as well. Prob ~75-125x2 rms 4ohm - that way ill really know what i will have for speaker/hu budget

 

Meh.

Integration or performance line. Then again if your shopping via Fleabay, I can't really help much. Never know what you might end up with there !

 

Good point. prob get some focals from you


As for as the amp tho, i think i want an old school amp. there is a PPI art series A600.2 nearby that i might go check out
Also a ZED/US Acoustics one (maxima is running one, works great)

 

Looks like some of these amps dont have any tuning

i need to more

 

I have Lots of old school stuffs. All stashed in my collection.

 

On a budget and with some tuning capability ? How bout one of these: http://www.onlinecarstereo.com/CarAu...n_KAC-X4R.aspx

 

ill have a ZED built amp soon i think

 

As long as it is fairly older, Steven kinda fell off with the latest offerings ..

 

I got a new amp, Diamond D300.4

4-channel car amplifier
50 watts RMS x 4 at 4 ohms (75 watts RMS x 4 at 2 ohms)
150 watts RMS x 2 bridged output at 4 ohms (4-ohm stable in bridged mode)
separate variable high- and low-pass filters (50-250 Hz, 12 dB/octave) on front and rear channels
separate variable bass boosts (0-12 dB at 50 Hz) on front and rear channels
focused mass heatsink improves cooling
Class AB amp technology
PWM MOSFET switching power supply
frequency response: 20-20,000 Hz
nickel-plated, low-resistance connectors
speaker-level and preamp inputs
preamp outputs
fuse rating: 20A x 2
4-gauge power and ground leads recommended — wiring and hardware not included with amplifier


i can run it bridged for the fronts? seems like it will be good for that purpose

 

Yea, that should work fine. I sold quite a few of them many years back. Leaves about a bit over $400 now in the budget I would assume ?

 

buyer canceled on me lol

back to square one

 

Like the one I suggested above ?

 

300 doesnt seem too much for an amp if im only running the fronts?

ill give you a 600(ish) dollar budget for the amp/components/wires

ill get the HU/PAC unit-steering/double din adapter/antenna adapter

how is that? pm me

car should be here next week so pm me

 

maybe 600



we shall talk

 

I never said you would have to pay that amount. Do you really think I, of all people, would send you to an etailer hack for buying goods ?

Yea, $300 is silly for just front (the most important) drivers in your car. I only use one of these for my mid/tweeter: http://www.braxhifi.com/products/pro...tem_id=142173#

 

 

cool functions ? how is 3G wifi ? you can be on line in you car system . If you are really interested in it ,you can consult happyshoppinglife

 

it will start soon

 

i want to flush mount some usb ports and an 3.5mm port

it see that for a singular 3.5

combo usb and 3.5
but it's kinda big


i want to install the ports in the 2 dash peices next to the radio. so i want to mount them flush on there - the aux one seems easy but i cant find any good looking usb ports that will fit there
i only see 25mm ones

 

what is your car ? 2 Din Car DVD Player you can take a look , maybe you will find someting interesting

 

i bought a kenwood HU

 

wtf, where are the pics of the car?!?!
