Double Din Dvd Players

[33SOM]

Anyone tried one of them dvd players from ebay? Usually under $4-500. If so is there a specific model thats half decent?

Thanks

Never mind those headunits. Buy something decent, but i love the dish on your frigin rims man .

agreed... dont buy cheap crap, you wont like it... commit and buy something decent and proper or not at all...

considering you can get a non touch screen jvc double din unit for around <$600 i wouldn't waste money on the unit from ebay considering they're garbage.

[MANWHORE]

Where can you get a jvc one for <600? brand new? I'll buy one tomorrow.

Like even in ricefield car radios, you're looking at over 1k for even a single din

i think he means the AVX11 on Ebay, it's round $600 i think, or the AVX33 it's round $800, of course no warranty in the country if you buy from the US, but i guess it beats paying $1200 in NZ for teh AVX11 and $1800 for the AVX33 :S

[skybarge]

whoops, the models i specified are JVC

don't buy any other touchscreen double din etc, off ebay, they are rubbish , buy a brand name unit only

Does anyone know what a alpine iva-0300e dvd player is worth, its single din and touch screen, cuz apparently it was 'very expensive' but i did a quick search and didn't think they were that dear. (It came with the car, with all alpine R gear)

lol i bought one today its not $500 but.. i bid and won $250 for double din 7inch...

im sure its made in china... but cheap though... ill let you know after installed it!

i dont expect much from these sorts of itemmm lol just watch movie~

i got ebay one got it installed running soundstream splits and rears off it sounds sweet looks great amps and subs soon to come. Its display is very good once running the speakers off the amps it wont really matter if it says JVC pioneer or EBAY BRAND. And it doesnt cost a grand.

[MANWHORE]

Honestly, for the cheap price they are now, I reckon you can't go wrong. Seriously, nowadays, they're 250-300 at max.

Back about 6 months, they used to be 5-600. For 250-300, you can't go wrong. Even a mid range pioneer headunit costs around that at strathfield.

[tyaos]

what do you mean by you cant go wrong? so the dvd player will nothing to worry about it?

[MANWHORE]

tyaos, not sure what you were saying there. What I meant by you can't go wrong, is that as I said, even a normal headunit (music only) costs around 250+. also, even pioneer etc single din (although they're way better quality) are 1k+. Therefore, for 250, at <1/5 the cost, you can't go wrong - even if it breaks, you can buy another 5 of them for the price

[DRD-00F]

or you can buy one good one and stick with that for 5 years til a better one comes out, and not bother with the associated hassles of having 5 f**ked up head units...

or not, i dont really care...

[bloodsword27]

if you want a good dvd touchscreen double din headunit, buy my pioneer AVH6850. its rrp is like 2200 and best price ive seen aorund is like $1700 through JB. get it off me instead for a fraction of the cost coz im working on suspension bits now instead so need the dosh btw steer clear from those ebay ones. whats the point of going through 5 decks and 5 times the hassel when you can do it right the first time around. just like playing in the engine bay, put your money in the right place the first time around or u can b blowing out alot more to fix it up later on..

whats the fasination with the number 5 who says one from ebay wont last 5 years. Seriously like 1500-2000$ dvd units from the top name brand all cost the same price to manufacture give or take a little bit so dont kid yourself. You can buy a rolex in bali with the battery that charges itself of your movements for 30 bucks but of corse it isnt a rolex but they can still put that technology in it for like fraction of the cost. make you wonder how can these "big names" charge so much for there product. Anyway the ebay one will work fine just a matter of if you want to be cool and spend 2000 on a pioneer head unit just so you can say ohh mate i have a 2k headunit or you can just spend 350 and be happy because it does all that the pioneer unit does and more. not sure about the output of the pioneer one but who cares i would rather save 1000 bucks

[skybarge]

in that case, i'd probably spend an extra 100-200 on one and get one of the JVC ones, even without a warranty off Ebay, they work well and look a lot better
