**jumpman138** · January 1st, 2009 11:11 AM

revive ko lang tong thread na to...i just recently purchased a pioneer 2950 myself, 2nd hand of course. just noticed that the music played through my mp3 player(aux-in), samsung k3, is not as loud as compared to a cd. the player uses the 3-pole jack, i checked...i've yet to notice missing instruments though. is it really like that ba...? music is not as loud played through the aux-in...TIA

so far the volume is ok when I play mp3 through the aux-in...just some missing instuments on some songs.

try fixing the equalizer/settings of your mp3 player. Also try using different baby jack connections just to see if the problem is with your cable.

the player is at normal playing mode...at its highest volume it still does not compare to the loudness from the cd player. to give ya'll an idea, to satisfy my ears, from he aux-in i set the HU volume to around 35-41 maybe...but through the cd player i'm satisfied with the HU volume at just around 18-24. will try to buy another 3.5mm jack...i just bought mine in ace hardware at just 65Php. hehe...medyo kuripot kasi ak eh.

sir, i also had the same cable sa ace hardware and experienced similar results. when i changed to a higher quality cable, it turned out ok. ang comment sa akin when i inquired about it is that the wiring of the php 65 cable manipis daw to the point that it affects the output quality

reviving this thread. stock HU for vios 3rd gen.

i've been using my Creative Zen Mosaic mp3 player via the Aux port for a while now. bigla na lang di na ma detect nang HU two days ago yung mp3 player.

I'm sure that my mp3 player and cable are in good condition, it still works in our van's HU. any ideas on what the problem is?
