Buyer's feedback: - * Great HU ...
I bought this for my 02 Nissan Maxima. It fits and sounds great. I have the Bose system, so I was interested in this for the high voltage pre-amp outputs and it sounds awesome. Features work well. For the money, you can not ask for anything better. Except maybe a controllable dimmmer.

Buyer's feedback: - BT8000 mixed blessing
I have a Pioneer BT8000 (with HD) in my 2003 Subaru Forester with the upgraded Subaru speakers and sub woofer. I also added the ipod cable for my daughter.

The good news is; Bluetooth phone capabilities (used with a Motorola V9M) are excellent and well behaved, call quality excellent, radio audio also excellent. The radio switches to phone if a call comes in, switches back afterwards. HD, when you get it, can sound great.

The bad news is that it is very hard to use. There just are not enough controls. Each major control has numerous uses but only one use per control is listed. Setup is very difficult. No on-off switch (function is in another button and hidden). You try to raise the volume and you change the frequency or the preset. Tuner sensitivity on AM is poor at least with the HD tuner. The steering wheel remote is hard to mount, even harder to use without looking at it. Even worse, the manual is one of the worst I've ever gone through. Too many things are made too complicated or are not even covered. The quick setup is even worse.

I'd give this 4 stars if only the documentation were decent.

Buyer's feedback: - * complete HU without the Navigation ...
Very much satisfied. easy to install and easy to use. the center knob needs some getting used to but once you tried it for a couple of times you will find it very useful.

i will recommend this to everyone looking for a double din but no nav and touch screen.

Buyer's feedback: - I am pleased
Overall I really like this unit. I replaced a stock head unit in my 2004 Subaru Forester. It sounds great, tunes in stations clearly, and most importantly it connects with my Blackberry Curve 8320 via bluetooth. Usually. The hands-free phone connection over bluetooth is flawless and works every time. It connects automatically and works and sounds fine.

However, and this is part that takes some effort, this unit also supports stereo and av control connections via bluetooth but getting this unit to connect as effortlessly is something I have not yet figured out. I have to disconnect using my phone after it fails and then initiate a connection from the head unit (three button presses) first, then, after it connects BT audio I switch to the hands-free phone connection on the unit and initiate a connection there. This method works every time but it requires a minute or so of sitting in the car fiddling with the stereo to get all connected.

I have also used the USB connection successfully but you don't get the AV controls through the unit, you have to skip tracks using the phone. I was able to upload my contacts from the phone (400 numbers anyway as this is the maximum) and can search using the headset but it's easier to use the phone for finding a number.

I have also used the AUX input headphone jack to play, but again, you don't get the controls.

If I remember right, to create a station preset you have to tune to your station, press the list button, rotate to the number you want it be and press and hold the knob for a few seconds.

As in previous posts:
- The knob scratches easily and I am contemplating something I can glue over it but so far it's not that bad.
- It's bright but there is a setting that dims it a little bit and another setting that kills the display all together. I was careful to be sure to connect the dimmer wire correctly but it seems to have no effect.
- Controls take a little getting used to but once you are over that hurdle it's pretty intuitive.

Buyer's feedback: - * Awsome radio ...
I love this radio. It has the built in bluetooth which is really cool. I don't have to look for my phone when driving, i just press the knob button on the radio. Also, I can customize my sound which really enhances my speakers, unlike the factory radio in my monte carlo. This is the radio for me!!!!
