Which head unit with these speakers

[keepingthe240]

I bought a set of pioneer ts a 1667 (front and back) a few years ago and am looking to upgrade my audio system. I've read that pioneer has the best bang 4 the buck on a budget. I'm not looking for anything that would exceed the ability of the speakers. I have a high end home theatre system ( my other hobby) thats more important then my car "tunes". What pioneer should i be getting? Under $150 on ebay !

Then you don't need a car stereo! Just put the home stereo in the back seat .

Also, don't go making claims of awesomeness without having pictures. Please post pictures.

I'd say any deck would do the trick. It's really up to what you like the looks of.

If you want car audio bang for the buck without a hassle, Pioneer and Kenwood are often the best choice. Stay away from sub-$150 products made by Aiwa, Sony, and Jensen.

No problem! I'll take some pics tonight of my system. Jesda- I was planning on buying a pioneer and i didn't want to spend over $150 if i didn't have to. It would be a waste to buy high end audio if the speakers couldn't handle the crisp clearity.

Update.. i sold the c r 2001 ( this is neither audio or 240 related)and i gotta dig though all my stuff for the new buyer.I'll have time on saturday night. Any comments on buying a refurnished cd player?

Check Best Buy this week. They had a Pioneer MP3 cd player on sale for ~$100

Here it is YOu mean the 2600 ?? I was going to buy it but found it cheaper on ebay.

I don't have a big screen or seating yet. Thats the best pic i could get without showing all the clutter in the background.

[PoorManQ45]

OMG, SPLOOGE! I love Sunfire stuff . They make some excellent stuff. What speakers are you running? Don't worry about the clutter, mine is worse

Boston Accoustic All the speakers are in cherryvr-m80 vr-mcvr-mxvr-m/expv1000 If you think about, you can enjoy a home system for a good 15 years as i did with my last setup. The cost really doesn't seem that bad.

Here is another toy i'd get if i can find a few more sponsers to help pay the bill.

[PoorManQ45]

My system is going on 5 years. It's composed of all 3 Ways. No powered subwoofers to "muddy" things up

[keepingthe240]

I use the sub when i watch movies.It's in the corner and hard to get to do to car parts being everywhere. My setup is 2 years old.I know the difference between music and home theatre. Is there a write up about switching the head unit in the 240. My cd changer broke 2 yrs ago.

[PoorManQ45]

I don't know if there's a writeup, but if ask on Nico, plenty of people have changed to aftermarket HUs.

If you don't mind me asking, what model Sunfire is that, and how much did it cost? I've read about them in "Sound & Vision" and they almost always get a good review.
