is it worth it to upgrade my stock stereo system. i bump it up occasionally. im interedted in the piooneer though

 

It probably wont sound much better quality wise untill u start upgrading more than just the headunit

 

True, once you start you'll have to end up replacing speakers as well, which is another $200 if you're lucky. If you listen to music with any seriousness it's worth it though.

My advice on a head unit is get something quality that's laid out simple and clean so you don't have to screw with it for minutes on the freeway trying to switch to FM or something. Check out Eclipse units if you can.

thx guys

 

Eclipse if you're really serious. If you're like me and get in the car just to listen to music cruising go Alpine or Eclipse it's the only way.

 

I have an Eclipse CD8443. Remember, Eclipse doesn't have detachable faceplates, and they won't honor anything that's supposed to go with the headunits unless you have it installed by an Eclipse dealer.
