Source Unit with Time Alignment

Recommended Posts

I'm looking for a good head unit that has time alignment. Unfortunately, this will be my first head unit purchase (used stock with special wiring harness) and as such I have no idea where to start. I really love the look of the Pioneer 800PRS, but they're discontinued. I do care a lot about aesthetics, but I want something that sounds great and will let me run my ID CTX65cs active and use time alignment, PEQ, and all the other normal goodies. My budget is about $300, but possibly can be extended for the right equipment. I don't have any problem buying used as long as it is "good as new".

If Meade uses it, it must be good right...

Exactly!! And I personally haven't found any issues with pioneer head units!! Now if Steve Meade used JENSEN Headunits, we'd have a problem!! :suicide-santa:

Then why bother mentioning Meade uses it to begin with :)

By yeah. Any premier pioneer radios are a good choice. In my opinion, and kenwood and alpine make decent radio also!!

The 800/880prs have 16 bands L & R (32 total)

Damn, too bad I missed that deal. Keep in mind I do care a lot about aesthetics. I want it to look very plain but sophisticated. I know this sounds like a silly request, but this is going in a show car and I want everything to be perfect.

Look into the 800/880PRS models. Both VERY good units.

I have the 800PRS and my girl has the 880PRS, same radio as far as functionality goes. The 800 has a few advantages though.

By yeah. Any premier pioneer radios are a good choice. In my opinion, and kenwood and alpine make decent radio also!!

VERY FEW radio's come with T/A, and even fewer sound good. That's just my opinion.

800/880/99 PRS's, Alpine 9855/9887/117, and Eclipse MKII

I'm looking for an 800PRS right now. There's one used on eBay for nearly $400. I can get one new for $550. I could grab a uses 880 for less but the 800 looks worlds better. Know of any place I could snag one?

For the price difference I would consider the differences cosmetic only. I konw that isn't the case, but in practice it is.

Well, are the 800s really worth $400 while the 880s are only $200? I'd pay extra just for the looks of the 800 but not $200 extra, lol.

The 800 has an all copper chassis while the 880 has a normal one. Which can help a lot with noise.

Good to know. I drive a 2008 Charger and they are notoriously noisy.

I'm confused. I thought you meant electrical noise being induced into the system that was audible in what the speakers were playing..?
