A few years ago I had an FM Modulator installed in my Saturn so I could hear my iPod through the car speakers. January of this year the modulator kept going in and out, one minute music, next minute static, in and out over and over. I brought it back to the car audio place that installed it, and they told me it went bad and a new one would set me back $140!

Well, seeing how I want my iPod in my car I need something, so I went shopping for a new car radio. (I figured that a new radio would cost less than the modulator, so why not just swap out the stock radio for a new one). I came across the Pioneer deck, and talked to the clerk. He told me that of all the radios they carry, Pioneer is the best among all of them. (Yes, even better than Sony, Alpine, et al.) It also has a 3.5mm jack in the front so hooking up my iPod (or any other MP3 player) would be a snap. The unit was $119, and when they threw in free installation, I was sold.

Obviously, I was wondering if the iPod connected via the aux jack in front would sound better than the FM Modulator...the guy installing the radio said it would sound better. He wasn't wrong. This radio absolutely kicks! Whether it's a CD or the iPod, this radio straight up rocks. I joke now that people can hear me coming 2 miles away instead of just 1 mile away. Picks up stations very well too, the SuperTuner is definitely worth the name.

The only cons I have is that the display is a bit on the dim side, when the sun is shining I really have to look hard to see it. But that's a very minor point when this thing sounds like it does.

Well in my opinion if you want a really solid unit at the right price you really can't beat this one. And if you see a red Saturn blasting music on the NJ Parkway headed to the Jersey Shore for the weekend, don't worry...it's just me.

Product Description:
Whether you're driving an old used car or a new one, you've got the right to have excellent entertainment while driving down (or up) the road. Seeking a car stereo receiver and CD player that delivers value and affordability? Stop here and take a look at the Pioneer DEHP2900MP head unit. It delivers MP3 and WMA playback, includes a powerful amplifier, and sports the station-grabbing Supertuner IIID for stellar radio performance. But that's not all. A handy front-panel auxiliary input on the detachable face makes it a snap to connect a portable music player or a plug-and-play satellite radio. If you want to go beyond a basic audio connection, add Pioneer's optional iPod adapter to control your iPod from the receiver while track information is displayed on the face. Or, add a Pioneer satellite radio to enjoy the same ease of control and display. Pioneer's Easy EQ lives up to its name, thanks to the six preset tone curves. If you like tweaking the sound a bit more, you can adjust the bass, treble and midrange to your liking, or employ the high- and low-pass filters to specify which frequencies your speakers or subs receive. You'll also find two sets of preamp outputs for adding an amp or a powered subwoofer.Compatible with optional Pioneer iPod adapter for playthrough with your iPod playerAM/FM Digitally-tuned Radio / Satellite radio-ready (tuner, antenna, and XM or SIRIUS service subscription required)Auxiliary input (front panel) Pioneer USA 1 year limited warranty Professional installation suggested
