If i change out my headunit will i notice a difference in sound quality?

nramlow2006

yes and no... your speakers will only work to there opimal ... so yes.. are head units are kinda garbage... no.. are speakers arent amazing either.

I do not have an ipod but i do always here good things about alpine, the main reason i want to switch it out is because my CD's always get stuck in the stock deck and the stock deck does not play CD's all the time clearly

this is the deck i was considering.

I just bought that headunit last friday and I find it much better then the stock headunit. I havn't been able to hook up my sub till tomorrow and im not the best at fine tuning, but I will let you know how it works out.

nramlow2006

ya, you really will notice a better sound from ur speakers after a new head unit...a new h.u. will amplify the sound, not a ton, but enuff to notice a difference

For $40.00 more you can get this deck with 5 volt pre outs and built in Blue tooth.
If you don't have an Ipod then it shouldn't matter if it comes with the ipod adapter or if you have to buy it later.
If you have a bluetooth phone then trust me its a great option to have the bluetooth deck

Rydis

Thank you

The problem with stereos is once you have them you want to play them loud, this makes for many missed phone calls, if your like me, missing phone calls is not an option, Bluetooth will interupt the song with the phone rining, and if its like mine it will give you audiable and visual call display, voice dialing, some of the single din ones also do text messages right across the display, most of the double din ones do. and the beauty of blutooth is it does it all on its own, turn on the car, it kicks in turn off the car it kicks out. (or if you get a certain distance away from the car)
FYI- The bluetooth unit was an add on for my HU, it cost me about $175 Can
