Pioneer DEH-150MP MP3, Front AUX-in, Advanced Sound Retriever - Audio CD Receiver

My player in my 2000 Toyota 4Runner bit the dust so I needed a replacement. Here's what I wanted.... 1. Good sound. I had realistic expectations that it wasnt going to sound like the ultimate Best Buy display model, but I wanted it to have a nice, thick, full-bodied sound. 2. Easy to use. 3. Easy to install. 4. High quality both in materials and appearance. And here's what I got with the Pioneer DEH-150MP + Sounds great. Much better than the factory system. If you push the system a bit, the base fades out and the mids and highs take over, but that's to be expected without a separate woofer. + Easy to use. There are all kinds of options and adjustments that are easy and MOSTLY intuitive. It even has a magnifying glass icon that allows you to scroll through the tracks on cds (names included) without advancing the disk until you press ok. Neat feature. However, my biggest gripe is WHERE IN THE WORLD IS THE OFF BUTTON??? You will most definitely have to refer to the manual to discover how to turn it off. Not a big deal but there is nothing that indicates how to turn it off on the actual display. Kind of odd. Overall though, easy enough to use. The remote is a nice touch although I feel lazy using one when I am within arms reach of the system. + Easy to install. Do some research via some forums and such and you'll have this thing installed in no time. Like one reviewer mentioned though, the system is a little bit deeper than most so make sure you have adequate clearance. I had no issue. + High quality. I can't speak for the longevity of the device as I have only had it for about 2 weeks, but it seems durable enough. The lumination is very handsome and definitely has the look of a much more expensive system. However, the faceplate detaches (good thing) but it did not come with a case and the glossy surface of the reciever face will most likely scratch very easily (bad thing). FINAL NOTES: Overall a fantastic receiver especially for the price. Easy to install and use, but the lack of a designation on the off button is, well, stupid. Also, when switching into some of the modes, it takes just a second to register with the system. Not a defect (the reciever's lights to a sort of wipe across the screen) but some adjustments will need to be done while pulled over onto the side of the road as opposed to driving. I would buy it again and definintely recommend it.

I bought this as a replacement for my stock Ford audiophile car stereo. It produces better sound than the original and allows for much more customization, especially of the subwoofer. There are so many options for tweaking the sound, that it is almost too much for me. I'm used to just adjusting EQ settings. But having too many options is hardly a complaint. I love having the auxillary input option which was lacking on the original stereo. It seems like a little thing, but I also like that Pioneer included the ability to pause the CD during playback, instead of having to power the stereo off when I need it quiet for a minute. My complaints are minor and involve the display. Often the display is a little difficult to read in bright sunlight. And I wish that more thought went into how the display options were set up. For instance, when in "Clock" mode during radio playback, it shows you the time and which band (FM 1, FM 2, etc.) you are in instead of the actual staion you are tuned into. It's a minor annoyance, but still bugs me a little. Besides, I had to find something to complain about... I would absolutely recommend this product. If value is calculated by the quality you get for the price paid, this is an excellent value. UPDATE: The unit started doing some funky things like going completely dark but remaining powered on. I couldn't shut it off, lower the volume or anything. It reset after turning off the car and restarting it. And there were issues with the AUX port. Often the sound would only come in on the left side speakers. I called Pioneer to get it replaced under warranty. I was told that because Amazon was not an authorized retailer, my warranty was void...thanks Pioneer. I called Amazon, explained my problem and was told a replacement would be shipped right out. I got the new one in two days and reinstalled it. The reinstall took two minutes because I only had to slide the old one out of the existing bracket and click the new one in. It's been a week, and so far so good. It's no big deal. I got a defective product, and Amazon was right there to make it right...and FAST!

Nice radio, easy install. No Bluetooth, but it does have an aux port. Great setup if you just want to keep it simple. Screen is nice and bright, and easy to see even with the sun shining on it, and it comes with a remote, which is convenient.

J'ai recu aujourd'hui mais sans telecomande! ...je vais le retourne !

Good value, just wanted to improve the sounds in my cheap and cheerful car. It did exactly that, along with a new set of speakers, now I can turn it up loud without distortion. Easy to install for a technophobe too.

Prodotto eccellente nel rapporto prezzp/o/qualità. UNico neo manca la presa usb e tasto di spegnimento!

Min Pioneer DEH-150MP saknade fjärrkontroll. Dåligt att man måste vänta 14 dagar på återbetalning innan man vågar beställa en ny. Tänk om den nya också saknar fjärrkontroll. Varför kan man inte få skickat delen som saknas.
