So what head unit does everyone use? In the market to get a good new head unit for the 4runner...was thinking about looking at the SQ decks with decent outputs.

Had a pioneer older model that worked well, only had 2volt outs tho and no remote. If that is one thing you wanted in the features.

I got a pioneer 7800. But for SPL I have had better like with this pioneer 2100. Easier to roll the volume up.

Don't get a Pioneer unless you want pulsating subs after awhile. I've had 3 Pioneers do that to me. Smile

I have had three units do this also. They always solder a ground back on and it works for a little bit.

I like to burp off my car computer, but for all the USACI comps I have installed a old used cd player, JVC that I found at a garage sale for $20 and talked them down to $10! Twisted Evil

I have a pre-amp and a bass cube to increase my signal to what I need to burp it! cheers

Yup. Anything can happen at anytime. I've seen alot of head unit problems in the USA too.
