Default Pioneer DEH-P700BT

Hi


What you guys think about this Pioneer radio (DEH-P700BT)? I just need a new radio in my subaru.. Now i have a old pioneer casette deck thing.. With a IP-Bus ipod mod!

Now this one has BT so i can connect my phone to it.. And it's ipod ready! Does this mean i can use the headunit to control my ipod .. or do i still need to control the ipod..!

I wanna stay pioneer..

the ipod can be control via the deck. It has a USB cable. so you need the USB-iPod cable that you use for transferring music to your ipod from your comp.

I have that HU. It takes some time to get used to the controls. I have my ipod nano hooked up to it and also an extra AUX line and SIRIUS as well. BT is not that greatest. Besides the BT, I think it's a great HU.

Like I mentioned is a good HU, but don't just buy it because of the BT. I've bought so many BT headsets, I gave up on the idea of having a perfect one.

i have that headunit in my S, great quality, asome radio, detach face, i have the ipod attached,.. i use the hands free every day.. sounds clear, ppl can even hear me clearly over the bov and 70mm tic with my windows up or down... the color display is awsome,..

the only thing i dont like about it, is that when you turn the car off, the face slides down for a few second and it hits the radio door if shut,.. but its not a big deal..
