i bought this for one dollar...:
but it needs an external amp. I have an offer for one that is 25 bux..and with that i'd be almost done if the seller has the correct wiring i need. but i just found a BOSS stereo, with wires (should solder right up to my bare wires) for only 60 bux. and i would not need an amp. i dont know if its a good deal because i dont know if the brand is any good, i only found ONE review online. does anybody know if Boss is a decent brand? i have some pros and cons below, give me your opinions.
and heres the one being sold:
here are more pics from random sites to show you what it looks like;
some of its perks:
* 5 Volt preamp output
* MP3/CD-R/CD-RW compatible
* AUX/Mobile video input
* Subwoofer output (BASSMAX)
* Anti-skip mechanism
* Preset EQ response curves
* Separate bass and treble
* Balance and fader controls
* Dual RCA outputs
* Loudness
* Stereo/mono & local/distance switches
* Output power: 50Wx4CH
* Wireless remote control
should i get rid of the stock toyota 3-in-one unit and go for this one? i havent invested anything substancial (again...one dollar).
toytoa OEM
pros: 25 dollars for the amp, maybe 40 total spent once i get mounts and a few wires..not a bad price
cons: no mp3 capability.
i must get an amp
BOSS
pros: RCA outputs
AUX inputs
internal amp
cons: 60 bux for the unit, then 20 dollars for the mounting kit = 80 bux give or take. kinda pricey, but i'm not sure because i dont know a thing about Boss.
