Can anyone get cheap Pioneer stuff?
Got all my part numbers of what I want to get but all the dealers are charging an arm and a leg for em, wondering if anyone has connections in pioneer or is a pioneer reseller and can offer me a competetive quote?

Hmm never mind

Just saved 440 euros by going here

What a bunch of rip offs the pioneer dealers here are.

Just got it installed, man it has some sound.
Cant wait till I get the sub in.

What model did you get Dean and was the shipping expensive?

I've just installed a 4 channel 400w RockFord amp for the front componants and rear 6x9's, sounds fantastic. My amp on my head unit was belting out 50w (19w RMS per channel), but it wasn't enough. After upgrading the stock Pioneer speakers with Rockford and JBL units, the amp was the icing on the cake. I'm also installing a power capacitor and another amp, I have an 8" sub so all I need to do now is make the enclosure, better get myself some Dynamat while I'm at it...

Just as an update on this.

I ordered two sets of sony speakers, a Pioneer DEH 7500MP Mp3 player, and a sony sub.

I got the Mp3 player and one set of speakers. The other parts didnt arrive cause someone at the company didnt write 6.1kg correctly and British Post picked it up as 61kg. So the driver refused to lift it.
So I called them and told them only half the order arrived, they said they would ship the rest out straight away.
1 week later I call them. "Oh, we will ship it out today." seems they forgot about me.
While this site is cheap, I certainly dont recommend them for sevice.
They also only answer their phone half the time.

Feckers...

They dont deserve any business.
Now I just found out that they sent the rest of the package via international standard post. 4-6 days delivery. While this is bad enough because since they fecked up in the first place you would expect them to try and get the package to you as soon as possible.
A 6.1 Kilo package costs £16.00.
They charged me £50.00, because the original package (only half of which arrived) was by next day post.
And since all the weight was in the sub and box, which I never got, I reckon they owe me at least £30.00
