You have taken almost everything I said, and twisted it into your own interpretation

at first I thought maybe, then realised that you just didn't understand what I was saying.
Then you did exactly the same thing you accused me of doing in your reply.

Quote:

Without turning this into a sloggin match.
You say you laugh at people who buy the flashing lights. then say pioneer have the best features. Look at pioneers top o the range units, with their useless 'pretty' displays. Then look at an alpine, with no pictures! Nothing to get distracted by. Simple text lines.

This was a point in which I was outlining how you "laugh at the people who buy the head units...." and it is Pioneer that you claimed were such a good brand which actually uses these pretty lights to sell their HU. I then provided an example of alpine (which I argue are much superior to pioneer) having practical HU. - I was trying to show how inferior pioneer really are...And I was using the points you had put forward to do it.

Quote:

Yes, but you don't buy it purely for the lights, you buy it for the sound quality and tweaking features, the lights are just a 'bonus'.

IMO, the reason you wrote his is because you didn't understand what I was saying in the original statement made by me.

Quote:

Most dials arent speed sensitive, so when you turn them fast, they don't go down any faster than if you turned them at a normal speed, if you need to get the volume down, use the att button, it works with radio too

The good ones I've encoutered are speed sensitive, and I really doubt you have the capacity to say such a generalistion such as "most". 'use the attn button' well, In that statement you just proved what I am saying - the importance of this feature. Obviously it works with the radio, (pause button don't)

Quote:

And why do you want mute or attn? (which any remote control deck has, ie 3rd model up) Besides, they all have pause.

Making sense now? Thanks. Once again helping my argument with your contradictory statements.

Quote:

If a deck not having these features is the only reason you don't buy it, then you are an idiot

\
With statements like that, Its pretty obvious that your the idiot here mate. The non-ability to turn the sound down quickly is a must have for loud stereo systems. I'd like to see how many intelligent people would fore-go some form of sound attenuation.

My quote:

Quote:

As for only two things to consider when buying a head unit - thats even more laughable. Why would a drive who is not intending to run amps to power speakers give two hoots about the RCA outputs? - Its means SFA to them

Then your reply:

Quote:

All decent decks are at least 50x4 these days, so comparing power output between decks doesn't really come into the equation

First of all not all decks are 4x50w, - another Uneducated generalisation - And ffs, read the statement I made...no mention of comparing the power output ????? Rolling Eyes

To explain it to you what said was an attack at your statement:

Quote:

You should buy a deck purely on 2 things
1) the quality of the sound output
2) the number of RCA preouts

Again I'd like to suggest the stupidity of this suggestion. And my first attempt to do so was "Why would a driver who is not intending to run amps to power speakers give two hoots about the RCA outputs?" Didn't you get what I was saying? This as I mentioned was another Obvious attack at your suggestion. eg, If a person is not installing amps. Then they don't even need any fricken RCAs. Comprehende?

Quote:

If you want a deck with mp3 player, then you obviously aren't buying it for the sound quality

Two different things, mp3 is a feature. And how can you make the assumption that someone interested in utilising the benefits of MP3 is not interested in sound quality. Like I said, different aspecs of Head unit functionality.

Quote:

WTF? Since when does your type of music matter a shit with what deck you buy???

if you need me to explain things like EQ, then it shows anyone in the 'Know' your lack of knowledge to make the reccomendations on Car Audio you have.

Thankyou.

To a bystander its damn clear that its you who has read what I said seemingly didn't understand it, and replied under whatever your understanding of it is.
