Does anybody have any experience, or have you heard anything about the Sony Xplod series? This months Turbo had a lot of stuff on it, and I was at Best Buy today, and it was very well priced. I mostly looking at the amplifiers and speakers, so any additonal info would be cool.

 

In a word, Sony XPLOD is CRAP. For the same price you could have something way better. Some of their HIGH END stuff is alright but most of it isnt so great.

 

Well damn, how do you really feel?

 

Any feelings on the XAV-A1 head unit? For 800 bucks it seems like a pretty damn good deal to me...

 

I have a Sony Xplod head unit and 10 disc changer. No complaints.

 

The head unit with the 7 inch pop out display, plays cds, dvds, all that jazz, and its only 800 bucks.

 

personallly id get the pioneer AVH5700DVD. Its about 750$ and its got a good name to back it up.

 

i used to have a sony headunit and it was pretty good, till some buttions starting working and display got crappy but it was a older deck anyways, but overall not to bad...but i havent heard good things about the xplod subs, i would go with something else for sub and speaker wise

 

the headunits are alright, the speakers are OKAY..amps/subs are horrible. in other words, put your money somewhere else unless you are getting a deal.

 

I dont know anything about their headunits but I know that their subs are crap.
