Hi harold!

There's an Alpine TDM-xxxx cassette player and receiver that has 4V preouts, not sure though if it has 3 pairs. I saw it in Autosport shop in Megamall. It's like selling for 11k to 12k yata packaged with an Alpine 6-disc changer.

yup, the pioneer 7350 is a good head unit. but i doubt if you can still find a store selling it brand new.

which brand will you choose, alpine or pioneer? ano sa tingin niyo sa dalawa ang mas matagal bago magkadefect? the longer the better para pangmatagalan na sana, also which will you choose an indash cd na or tape deck hu? tnx

Hi Harold!

If budget allows, go indash CD na. Yung tape kasi one day will become totally obsolete na, sayang namantape deck HU mo pag di mo rin nagamit tape functions niya.

Anyway, Pioneer and Alpine are both good in their HUs. What will matter next is the features you would want in a HU.

I have a Alpine CTA-1502E HU for 5 years now, never had any problem since the day I bought it.

BTW, you can also check that CTA-1502E too. It is dubbed as one of the best HUs during its time. It's still available at the Autosport shop in Megamall for about 13k. It has 3 pairs of 4V preouts, but it is a receiver only, not an indash CD player. When you decide to buy the 1502E, it is necessary for you to buy an Alpine Ainet CD Changer to use with it.

Nevertheless, you can't go wrong with either Pioneer or Alpine HU.

of course, an indash cd deck. for reliability, i go with pioneer. hindi talaga yan namimili ng cds kahit puro gasgas at madumi na. hindi rin motorized yun face ng pioneer decks tulad ng alpine so less prone to mechanical defects.

the alpine cda-7892e ainet (10.7k sa mega) got it kay helen of perfect circle way lower px. hehe

has the media expander / can control mp3 and dvd changers / time correction / 50w X 4 mosfet / bass engine / 4v preouts including the sub with x-overs/ face angle etc...

dami pa ibang features, just the right price... actually medyo mura nga eh. nice for simple SQ.

harold

kung may kaibigan kayong magseset-up pa lang ngayon, what hu will u suggest na abot kaya?

Billabong

Pioneer DEH-5550 or 7550. yun DEH-5550 2v lang ang pre-outs niya.
