If its me, I'll just get the 50K discount. And if you need or want, you can use it to purchase a better system from other suppliers.

Sir number001, what other system that will work with steering wheel controls and has navi? Thanks in advance

[April_Ryan]

For me, you only get the AVT for the GPS and full use of steering wheel controls. Sound isn't as good as pioneer high end models.

I'm not aware of any other HU with GPS, except for a Kenwood variant na mahal (50,000, without GPS module pa). I don't know though if steering wheel controls work.

Yung pioneer models, you can make all steering wheel controls except BT, pero no GPS. Maganda sound though.

Pick your poison

^although, to be fair, the GPS is compelling enough for me kaya up to now, di pa rin ako maka-decide between getting a pioneer, which has no GPS, or the AVT.

Thank you April_Ryan for the input, I had the avt demo in the showroom yesterday and sound wise it's decent. Is the stock system on the xs bad or livable?

I have the AVT unit and the sound is ok for my untrained ears

And the GPS is extremely useful.

HTH!

*vwaudimb,

Stock isn't good. Lalo na for radio. I had my previous car set up by Mickey's Autosound (not high end, very basic, simple set up with pioneer HU, seps, amp and sub) and the difference is discern able when you play CDs or MP3s. Kaya di ako matahimik. Hahaha!

Yung pioneer that I like (avh 8450 yata) is the touchscreen type na din like the AVT but no GPS. With the rear camera, plus all the wirings, panel and steering wheel interface, it comes to about 45K maybe. No seps, amp or sub yet.

Try mo pala fly audio or the china made OEM HU. But I don't know if the latter has one for Subarus.

Is the stock system on the xs bad or livable?

For me, I would say it's "average" not "bad". But since I'm particular about the sound system, then it's not livable

I think if you're not particular, or you just listen to audiobooks, podcasts, AM stations, occasional MP3s, it's probably livable.
