I have not heard the MP46 but I prefered the 9856 to the 7950. Again this is me. I am wierd. Ask anyone on this forum that knows me.

well, if anyone from noida or delhi wants good sound; you must check out car raunaq in sector 16 noida. ask for mahesh or salim, i've got quite a few cars done from there(2 accents (mine included), a lancer, city, scorpio and a verna), he is value for money great sound, very neat installation and yes.. no vibration!!!

Hi Guys,
I have short listed a few HUs:
Can anoyone tell me the prices for these? If u already have auditioned these, may be u can tell me ur opinions as well

In order of priority (fav):
1. Kenwood KDC - X491
2. Kenwood KDC - 535U
3. Blau kingston MP47
4. Sony CDX- 660U
5. Clarion DX 575U

*. Alpine 9883 (this doesnt have USB, I may plug in a FM transmitter to my lossy music player - )

I may be going for a pair of Coax (JBL) front door speakers right now, and in future upgrade to Compos (and an amp probably) . I dont want to overspend on the HU right now. THe concern here is not to let any features in HU go unused.

Hi Guys,

I got a 460 in June this year. However, of late I am planning to get the bluetooth enabled headunit, perhaps MEX-BT5000. I have the B&W of the headunit. Wanted to know if a trade in is available at Sony dealers, or perhaps help me find similar in Delhi.

The dealer whom I purchased it from is just offering me 5k for a trade in, considering that I got it at 8.1k and have more than 22 months warranty.

Waiting for your responses.

Thanks

resale on electronics is pretty poor. 5K seems like a reasonable deal; warranty notwithstanding.

yes, 5 k to 12k . And i dont like to have an amplifier, so the hu should be powerful( 20+rms).

The HU amps are normally 15-20 watts rms but with loads of distortion. If you plan to listen it at moderate volumes then HU amp is enough but you want loud and clear then Amp is the way to go.

[swathyd]

I listen at moferate volumes, never go past 11 o clock.

Has anybody listened to Blaupunkt s ' St Louis MP56 .

Burr Brown ( burrs) does not make a HU`s SQ to go up there are other things to be considered also. Like budget, features.

[sk456]

HU with burr brown decoders will not come in 10k budget....
You can look at kenwood KCD-01...twin burr browns...pure sq..no frills..no blings...no eq...jsut solid SQ.... should cost abt 20-25K now ( if u can get one )....Very very classy
