amilleri View Member Profile Enthusiast Joined Jan 25, '13 From CT Currently Offline Reputation: 0 (0%)	So I finally found and bought a 99 celica gt 5spd, yay! So I want to put a new stereo in since the one currently in it doesn't support anything but a cd player. What should I go with, I'm looking for something with aux input so I can use my phone. I have no clue about what stereos are good or bad, can anyone help me out on a few good differently priced options. Like a cheap, midrange, and high end and the disadvantages of the lower end ones.

I've recently bought Pioneer DEH-1500 for 77€ ($100) and I'm surprised of the quality and power that I get on stock speakers... Especially if I compare it to my previous Kenwood head unit, what a difference! Kenwood is ****. Had two Kenwoods (they came with each car), never buying one for sure. -------------------- My '97 ST slow mod thread

That's funny that you say that because they are LITERALLY made in the same Chinese factory in Shanghai. I've been there and toured the place and listened to them describe the differences [Of which there are very few]. Perhaps it just so happened that I got to try two bad Kenwood products and one outstanding Pioneer head unit (in the same price range) My bad - it was JVC I was thinking of. I got to looking through my pics from that trip and it was JVC being made in the Kenwood factory. Sorry bro. BTW - My vote goes to Kenwood [Not the best but def the best bang for the buck] but just dont pic the two decks Nihil got LOL This post has been edited by DEATH: Apr 3, 2013 - 3:02 PM -------------------- ENGINE: '93 RC 3S-GTE/WRC CT-20b [18-20PSI] PERF: TRD/HKS/ARP/NGK/MSD/ACT/Blitz/STRI/APEX'i/TwosRus/GReddy/Magnaflo/KOYO SUSP: Tein/Bilstein/SusTech/ INT: SS-III SEATS/Toyota Hyper Sports EXT: WRC/TRD/404 QUOTE (lagos @ Aug 25, 2010 - 10:13 AM) Its a safety feature so that people like you don't end up killing themselves or everyone around them.
