    drunkenmaster - IMO, if you can base your choice for your next set of seps by listening to the actual model for yourself. If it is possible for the shop to test it in your car then so much the better.

    I used to rely on reviews too but then I learned via the hard way that in the end, it really depends on who is listening. I learned that what may sound crap to some maybe be heaven to others so it really depends on YOU as the user to determine the right sound you want - not what is popular or more expensive.

    kudos to theveed!

    i too am perturbed with the way Xplod are being bashed over and over, mainly i think...because of the media hype that it got from fart and the not soo furious movie, i for one am using an Xplod HU and im by far contented with it(.) not too mention that it's cheap aswell, as for the speakers, well...some are decent enough, subs...i like 'em fine, unless i have an insanely huge amount of dough i'd go for JL Audio(but of course!)...sabi nga nila, to each his own...Xplod haters, you do the math

    imo, nothing beats the audiomobile headunit na nabibili sa raon (usb, aux in, cd/mp3, [yung iba dvd ready pa] mmc slot), for only Php 3,200 (presyo nung nabili ko yung sakin, ewan ko lang ngayon) and macrom speakers at the back and macrom with tweeters at front. my 6,000+ SQ setup sounds like a 12,000 - 20,000 SQ setup

    I am still a satisfied owner of a 7-year old Sony Xplod HU. It comes with a CD-MP3 player. It has made a lot of difference in the sound quality of my stock speakers on a couple of our vans. Its 52W x 4 setup and its 3-point megabass setting still amazes me.

    I recently bought another Sony Xplod HU (GT470?) and I am planning to install this in one of our vehicles over the weekend. I have high expectations on this unit, based on my experience with its older brother. It now comes with a USB input and an AUX in. I grew tired of carrying a lot of MP3 CDs when we travel, so I might as well use the huge capacity that is being offered by flash drives and MP3/Cellphone players....

    That is globalization bro.

    However, if a company goes to China for manufacturing, their products normally (and should) go through the stringent QA requirements to maintain their level of quality. Else, they run the risk of losing their customer base.

    in my opinion, they're not the best for the money. but that's just my opinion from having listened to them, but that opinion is not worth more than anyone else's who may have auditioned them and loved them.

    i think too many people are brand snobs. they find out that the most expensive, hottest brand is Focal or Mark Levinson and suddenly, everything more mainstream than that is garbage and those people who "waste" their money on those brands are all idiots

    ok naman ang sony xplod na HU, maganda quality ng tunog nya.. 2 na xplod ko na HU, ung isa may graphics, ung isa naman mex-1gp, my built-in memory na sya, connect mo lng sa pc or laptop, drag ka lng ng mga fave songs mo, panalo na.

Is Sony Xplod A Garbage?
