[jeffishot]

r u familiar on how the set up is made? will u still need a head unit or will the cd room serve as the head unit?

[AC]

hindi pa po yata kaya nun mp3.. dahil kelangan ng programs pag mp3.. anyways magkano po ba ganyan? dami ko nakikita ganyan sa raon bangketa.. hehe

Sus... old CD-ROMs can be had for dirt cheap... all you need is wiring adapting it to the car's 13v power supply.

Di ba grabeng mag-skip ang mga yun? ???

[AC]

hindi po pwede kahit anong cdrom sa alam ko.. dapat yung may play button sa harap...

hehe.. but mukha ngang grabe sa talon.. dahil.. for home use lang itong mga to

eh kung cd changers nga na dami suspension rubber stuff.. nag sskip.. hehe ganito pa kaya

Ang CD drive kasi will play audio CDs as long as there is power. I think sa headphone output dumadaan ang signal not via the IDE sa likod. Idadaan lang ang signal sa amp to power the speakers.

And tama si AC. MP3s are treated as normal data files by the CD drive. You'll need a program like Winamp to decode MP3s. And for that you'll need a computer. Pero since via headphone jack na rin ang output ng CD drive, you can use a dedicated MP3 player. Sa total gastos mo, you're better off buying an in-dash MP3 player na lang :D

Wala talaga sa IDE - may hiwalay na connector yan sa likod para sa soundcard (Analog Audio Out). Kaya lang, kung walang volume control yung amplifier, obligado ka na gamitin yung headphone jack para magamit yung volume control ng CD drive

oks yan dude... pero kailangan mo nang amp....

I use this set-up sa ride ko... pero dumadaan signal sa tape deck nang radyo ko
