best cd player for car?

**irrelevant0** · 05-27-2005, 09:16 AM

before certain people start *****ing : i am caught up on all my bills and i have bought what i need. i've been getting a lot of overtime, so i am very comfortable right now. it's not your business how i spend my money, but that will clear things up before anything starts.

first i want to ask, is it a bad idea to buy electronics from wal-mart?

second, which of these is the best brand: sony, pioneer, jvs, or durabrand?

I know nothing about car stereos. Just wanted to say I'm glad things are going well for you at work. Make sure you put some money aside though. Overtime is great, but it doesn't always last. Don't take this as criticism. Just the mother in me giving advice.

me being the kind of female i am..i dont know much about cd players...
i have always felt that brand names were suppose to be better....
i have a jvc in my car and absolutely love it...
my speakers are infinity's and you can hear my bass from a fairly good distance..."thank GOD i have outgrown those days"
i do suggest getting a detachable face......so handy...it helps keep thieves away..."most of the time"
whatever you get...good luck...and let us know how it goes..

all I can say is that you should either get one is the removable, easy to remove or one where you can take the faceplate off. That way you can either take the player with you when you get out of the car or if someone tries to steal it, they won't break the dash getting it out.

Our 23 y/o DD bought DH a CD changer from walmart (I think it was a rampage) we never had any problems with it (even tho its a cheap brand) Had it for 4 years until we sold the bronco.

I asked this question awhile ago and got one response. Here is the link to the thread.. hope it helps. http://www.bigbigforums.com/showthread.php3?t=429935

(I still haven't bought one since the only place I got the gc from was Checkers and (I'm sorry Buttrfli!) I didn't want a Rampage.

I'm a huge fan of Sony though and would prob go w/ that... of course I keep hoping that I will win a jackpot (if i ever go gambeling) and will be able to afford a new car!

whoo hoo lol.. anyways....

I would hafta agree on Sony.. I bought a brand new one on Ebay for about $80 and it rocks..it plays mp3 cds and has an awesome control system. I can set it to club backround, explode, rock, jazz etc settings..I think the model is Explode

thank you all so much.

mimi, i think you've got a good idea, i didn't take it as criticism. i know it won't last forever, i am putting some back.

thanks for wishing me well. i am going to write these tips down and go look around tomorrow. don't want to jump into anything, even though being without a radio is bugging me.

I have a Denon and love it. They are very pricey, but you can find
decent sales.

If you dont have a radio in the car most of these have to be played theu a cassette player in the car so unless you plan on wearing it on your head you need a radio to play it thru

what are you talking about? i'm lost ... i have a cd player in the car with a radio, but the cd player broke a while ago and the guy who installed it didn't connect the radio wires properly so all i get is static - how in blazes would you wear a dash cd player on your head?
