Want new audio system - advice needed

[Leon_Glasgow]

Hi!

new to the forums but have to say this place is amazing! Had my Leon for 4 months now havent had time to really do much to it. Wanted some advice on upgrading the audio system. Would like somehting touch screen and connects to iphone. Any advice would be appreciated along with anything else you think would be useful to do to the Leon

cheers!

Pioneer Double Din Stereos are very good with all features. Do come with a price tag of around £280+. Then you will need the canbus wiring to get it working with steering controls if you have them. A new fascia would be required too around £20

Cheers for the reply,

sounds decent, and very expensive lol - dont mind paying extra for quality though. Yeh i had seen the pioneer system in Halfords.

Your better off googling for better prices as Halfords are rip offs lol try roadradio as thats where I got mine. Pioneer 3300BT which is now discontinued but a newer better looking version is out. Worth a look

I'd recommend this Pioneer Unit...

http://www.caraudiodirect.co.uk/pio-avh1400dvd-pioneer-avh-14000dvd.html

5.8" Touch Screen
Plays DVD's
Has all the features you are looking for & would be the basis for a full on system (3 Pre Outs, proper built in EQ so if you fancy running Active you could without the need for external crossovers)
It is Ipod ready but needs an additional cable

It was going to be my H/U of choice before I bottled out of buying the '07 reg FR TDi I had put a deposit on (too many horror stories about the Injectors & DPF put me off)

Would be a fantastic upgrade & a bargain at under £250 as well

Nice one, I think I maybe investing. Not being able to play mp3's is a pain in the arse!

Thanks for the advice guys! Is it possible to update the current software on the one i have? Which is just the standard one you get in the Leon
