car ready CD Player!

[crossback]

i can't afford an HU upgrade & CD Changer is not an option - thus i'm now shopping for a car ready CD Player / Diskman (?)... can you guys recommend a good brand and model - preferrably japan made as my brother will be going there this december!

i was browsing sa site ng sony - sobrang daming info - di ko makita yung hinahanap ko...

tia!

why not get an MP3 player instead of a diskman? madaming cons ang diskman, in which, the primary one is skips. maski may shock protection pa sya, dahil sa sobrang lubak ng mga kalsada natin dito sa manila, di pa rin enough yung feature na yun.

for an MP3 player, you still need the same stuff. an adaptor tsaka a direct power source, which is your cigarette lighter. i think a 256 MB will be ok for you.

two cents lang pow.

hmmm. but if you really insist on getting a CD player, get the Philips Sport. the longer the shock protection, the better.

sir happy im also considering that pero parang wala kasing appeal sa akin yung flash MP3 player eh...

i forgot to add - what i'm looking for is a cd player thas also mp3 capable...

but w/respect to cost, magkanu po ba price difference if i go for a cd (mp3 capable) player against a flash mp3 player!

mp3 player would be my suggestion... nagbebenta ka pala odell?

[ssaloon]

odell, please avoid using the forums as your personal advertising space. if you really must, make use of the classifieds section or PM the prospective buyer of your items for sale. ilan beses ka na sinasabihan eh... tsk tsk tsk.

I opted to buy the pioneer head unit deh-4650MP. MP3 compatible na ito. It terms of cost halos parehas lang yata if you're buying a brand new sony discman (bought mine around 8.2K). Minus ng hassle of having adaptor, connectors, and the discman lying somwhere in your car. Traveling to bagiuo and back to Manila you'll be most likely to use 1 disc only.

Ang downside ng 4650 e medyo maliwanag ung display during the night saka hindi colored yung display..

Try to shop around for used ones pero syempre may risk, kung minsan may repairs na.

how bout mp3 cdr and vcd palyer na disc player? may tv kasi ako pero di ko nagagamit kasi nga walang player...I was thinking about having my inverter fixed para di na problema ang power supply.

Dati ang gamit kong HU may cassette player. Meron akong next base dvd player connected sa HU ko thru cassette adapter. Maganda na ung sound pero mas maganda sana kung may surround sound processor. Madalang syang mag skip during long drives.

Di mo na kailangan paayos yung inverter mo since portable DVD players requires voltage from 6-12v. Kailangan mo na lang lighter adaptor. Yung next base meron na syang kasamang lighter adpator. I don't suggest na gumamit ka ng home DVD player dahil walang syang shock protection. Di mo maeenjoy yung movie.

Since I have changed my HU na walang cassette player, di ko na nakakabit yung DVD player. I need an adaptor para magkaron ng RCA aux input yung HU ko. Baka meron sa inyo nito http://parts.pioneerelectronics.com/...tNum=CD%2DRB10 :D

BTW, don't watch while driving. ;)

this can also be an option. i heard the the price of the deh-3550MP now is almost equal to the cost of a 256 MB flash player. yun nga lang, few stores now carry this brand. di ko lang alam dyan sa may banawe kung madami pa.

*crossback: for a good CD player which plays mp3's the cost would be around 5-6k. same for let's say a twinmos 256mb flash player (which i use....). and yes, at that price, baka meron ng HU na mp3 capable....

[notEworthy27]

ricky , what I meant was sira na talaga ang HU ko. di umaandar...hehe I think malabo ang post ko. well, walang LED signal na "on" ang device.
