30% off head units, are they good?

~~Justin220~~ · 08-18-2009, 01:41 AM

Hey guys, I'm now in a dilemma and need your help! I wanna give to me my dad a birthday present, he doesn't need some luxury head units to fit his old Ford. And I'm also a practical person. I have checked this discount Eonon units maybe a good choice?!! Since I've never met so cheap a unit before:

But I just doubt is it reliable for these products which declared great quality? have you ever got such mass discount or refurbished products before? is it good and safe? Or buy a brand new one is better? Thanks for your advice!

I would look else were, as they say if its too good to be true then. Actually New Egg has head units and if you look around Flee Bay, again read the fine print.

I have some kenwoods that go for 109.... or I have a monster one that goes for 299!

I really have no idea, but I've heard from one of my Facebook friend that he's using Eonon, and not bad, so I've become a fan for Eonon page, yes we should think before we leap.

I think that it is either hit or miss when it comes to cheap stuff. I know there are some Sony radios out there that are having problem right out of the box.

Yes that's true, sometimes it all depends on your luck, it doesn't mean Sony products are 100% good, thus, XXXX is not 100% bad I think. Since they're on different level.

Haha, to tell you the truth lcurle, I'm a risky person, do you think I should take this chance to have a try? I wanna see if there is any improvement for such cheap Chinese brand...

Well - don't they offer a return policy? If they do, then it wouldn't really hurt.

Alot of times you can go into a local store and talk with the saleman, usually you can get 20-30% off the top of the price, depends on what their markup is on the product.
Let me know what features you are looking for and if it is a Single DIN or Double DIN.

What I'm looking for is a double din, better with bluetooth and Ipod integration, so I can have more entertainment, and enough interface for connection.

Your Kenwood is a good unit, and great offer, but still beyond my budget, I've already ordered it from Eonon yesterday, it's said will be arrived in 3-5 days, I'm now waiting! I came there to buy the last E1022 they left! Lucky dog!

**lcurle** · 08-30-2009, 08:26 AM

cool, let us know how it works, I am curious myself.

~~Justin220~~ · 09-01-2009, 12:46 AM
