The Best Sound Quality on Amazon? Android Car Stereo Head Unit

Any recomendations for a 5 channel amp for this to push 4x 6.5 door components and single sub

So pretty just to make sure I fully understand, this headunit will sound great as long as it's paired with a 4 channel amp correct? I have a 18 inch sundown on a jp23 and door speakers on a skar 1000 rms 4 channel amp. Will this head unit satisfy my needs for good sound quality??

I only buy with knob volume

By the sound of it its Chinese so avoid it

that 40 second bootup is a deal killer... that sucks. would be a good unit if it were 5-9 seconds. does this come with a larger screen? like a 10/13/17" screen?

Recently bought a nice flip out screen stereo made by Dual Electronics. It looked really nice but man it sounded like crap. After two weeks started having issues like freezing screen. Returned that sucker back to amazon. I only paid $79 for it so yeah it was too good to be true

the issue with chiny fair priced head units id the 1 or 2gb ddr3 junk its obsolete crap oh for 4-50000 one can get a ddr4 6gb unit but i just say find a tablet with fm radio ability and add an EQ or preamp board for volume knob hack all that in car much cheaper and yeas you can download a GUI radio skin

thank the lord an android head unit review with out an apple head i refuse to buy that over priced junk that one can not buy a part for apple sucks lol

The suspension is a death trap maybe the audio is better

Yes pls save the volume knobs. Never buying a new head w out the knobs.

Internals look exactly the same as every other chinese android head unit you can find right now from as low as $40 up to $1000. Only difference between them is slight changes to the housing and front inputs, and the software that comes preloaded. They're all totally unlocked so you can root them and install any version of android and any car audio software you want on them if you don't like the stuff that comes preloaded. I have one friend that spent $300 on one from ebay, another that spent $100 on amazon, and I just bought one recently on amazon for $40, they are all exactly the same unit. Ironically the most expensive one was the only one that had any problems, when we went to add subs to the radio anytime we connected the RCA's the door speakers would cut out and only the subs would play, I searched through the settings for hours trying to find something that could be causing it, even stranger, when we just said f it and bough a loc to bypass this issue, whenever we connected the RCA's to the loc the same thing happened again, and I was left totally baffled. HOW could the door speakers not be playing if the loc is getting its signal from them? Never did figure it out. Ended up having to get an amp for the door speakers too.

they make terrible coilovers, pretty good connecting rods for the price tho.

Does the unit clip when you start moving the frequencies up and down

Ahhh I want this for the DSP. But only planning to use the internal amps. Recommendations?? Looking for cheap and double din

excellent review!

What is the brand and outputs of the blue amp with clear top

So my experience with them is a set of coilovers. Pretty cheap, thought I’d give them a shot. And yeah… They are cheap, they feel cheap, and the ride quality was CHEAP. Dampening all the way up? Felt like a rolling spring. All the way down? Felt like a rolling spring.
Not good

Yeah. my motorcycle speedo/tach is made my them. Great display. Still works 👍

This guy sounds like David freibirger

USUAL Boot-Time is 45 seconds?! What potato is powering this brick? Tho I like the advertised feature- set, not gona wait nearly a minute to start the thing up. That's just a deal-killer

Here's a question for you. Do any of the android head units support USB external DAC. Have anice dac amp speaker setup I've been running with an android tablet as a head unit. Its getting tired and looking to update, do the USB ports support external DACs? (or any other units?)

Watched this 3 times and was very interested until I caught the boot up time of 45 seconds so I checked my other car which has a Kenwood Excelon DDX396 and the boot time for it is 16 seconds via key turn on until sound on FM and about 3 seconds longer to sound with USB on. I figure 45 seconds is unacceptable and will annoy me immensely. Checking in to XTRONS with volume knob as well.

Is the hdmi an input or output???

I ordered one from your link.. I'm trusting your measurements. Might have some questions during install. Well I'll ask now if I have four channels on my amp. Do I run a splitter from each channel of my amp to my RCA hook ups running from the radio?

Thanks for the review! I'm about to buy this thing but I really need to know if the DSP will allow good-old-fashione Front/Rear/Sub configuration. I've got passive crossovers for each set of components

This should sound great with my Orion XTR amps and my old school JL audio 3 12’s W6 even though I already have an Audison DSP on it

I wonder if they just took some generic Chinese stereo and slapped their brand name on it.

Been looking for a budget double din and this seems to fit the bill. But a little confused. Since I'm only running doors and rear 6x9s with a sub, that would be the 2way setting, right? Which rcas would I use for that?

Just to clarify on the RCA outputs, you're recommending to use the 5.1 center L & R for the front speakers? I recently purchased 2 of these units for 2 different vehicles. Both are using factory type 2 way speakers with no subs, not yet anyway. Great video and very informative!

Cant Thank you enough! Awesome DIY Guide

is it possible to connect a dashcam to the HU?

I am considering ordering the Maxspeedingrodz head unit. Do you think it will be hard to install in a normal double din installation? It is the only thing I'm worried about. TIA

Is the rear fan noisy?

Max PEEDING rods did start with rods. 1.8t Audi/VW was an early one. 144mm x 20mm extremely common Audi/Vw connecting rod size from what I remember

What is the best sub I should run with this

Could u test out a Eonon unit for bmw e39?
And should I get an separate amplifier with that.

That's a nice one I haven't seen yet, Looking at options for my recently bought magnum. You forgot to mention, the ability to run both a dashcam, as well as a backup cam, off the head unit (it's in the description). with all the bad drivers out there, a little protection is needed

I bought it, based on your video, and well... love it! And gonna buy another. I put this in my wife's car which has 4 kickers series door speakers and a Parts express 10' dual passive radiator sub set-up and everything came to life!
I will be replacing my Pioneer soon.

Hey I bought this because of your video and I installed it in a 1988 Honda Goldwing and ya without an amp is stinks but its way better than the factory radio oh volume is louder though I am running 2ohms and the FM radio is better and Apple Support is awesome great sound !!

can’t wait to install an amplifier and sub

What kind of Wiring harness/power cable does it use? I just bought one and i’m missing it. Do you know where i can get a replacement?

My silverado has the bose system with factory amp, would this unit be ok with my system ?

Of course it's double din







And of course I drive a 93 BMW...

very interesting......i want to for a long time use such a unit but only have single din....will need to mod the dash to take it

What 4 channel amp would you recommend for this headunit and on a budget under $120?

Anyone know what the factory password for this is to get into the settings?

Thanks for the video! This is exactly what I was looking for. I am going to use it in a VW Jetta with the monsoon amp. Do you think this will work since the monsoon amp uses speaker level inputs since the signal is clean until volume 29?

I have an 03 Yukon XL with Bose and plan to buy this.
Would running rca to speaker wire adapters off of the headunit instead of wiring the vehicle harness to the headunits speaker outputs work?
I'm assuming the Bose amp is only looking for a low level audio signal, not an amplified signal from the headunit.
I'm hoping to get around the Distortion the headunit has at its speakers outputs without bypassing bose and running a new amp to all of the speakers.
