Ok so ive been looking to buy a new headunit for quite sometime now. I have it narrowed down to two units, the kenwood DNX5120 an the Pioneer AVIC-F700BT. the price range between them is like a hundred dollars so im not to worried about money wise. But I was wondering if any of you guys had this headunit an which you would prefer. I really like them both an its such a hard decision to make.

 

i dont have one, put i have demo'd the avic and i love it. i'm defenatly looking into one very soon.

avic ftw!

 

Just noticed this morning that Best Buy has the AVIC for 699 now, with a choice of free speakers from about 24 different kinds....

I've been eyeing this one for awhile myself......

man thats a great deal. to bad I already have speakers or I would be jumping all over that deal. But the AVIC doesnt play DVDs tho right an I kinda want that.

 

im thinking about gettin the avic f90bt... it does everything

 

i think im going to get the kenwood dx5120 with garmin maps. Do you guys know how much the installation goes for at best buy?

 

i got the d3 and i love it.

 

yea man I saw that one to an was thinking about that one also but thats a little more than I wanted to pay. but that one does everything you say?

 

i just installed the avic f900bt two days ago. it takes sd cards, plays dvds, usb but the screen is only 5.8 inch. there was some good wright ups i used on how to install one yourself. i could even answer some questions you may have. best buy may not do the bypass, unless you pay more on the side. and they may not know about the voltage regulator or the antenna adapter that needs to be used i mentioned in another post. i was able to do it all myself and i know that noone screwed it up. i also get the satisfaction. remember that young punk kids will be installing it, i did some bad stuff at my jobs when i was young. also, i only said 707 for my hu. they also have avic411.com. i dont know much about the kenwood though.
im typing this at work from my cell phone so sorry if it makes no sense.

 

the diff between the avics are the 700 does not play dvds or has a glossy screen. the 900 does everything but the 90 has high voltage preouts and i think comes with the ipod cable.
