I can't really imagine it being something I'd do as a hobby, but I do it for work pretty often. In fact there's one I have to buy tomorrow.

Well, true, but I mentioned somewhere I'm addicted to stationery, so I can probably see myself liking it. But, it definitely will be weird to buy it unless I need it =/

Yup! It's a great time. I'm a font fanatic. I decided to pick up some Sans Serif fonts today. I went Serif crazy.

Got myself a new car radio.
Had this one for a long time:

Great radio, but I figured SD would be a lot easier for me than MD.
Sound quality of a properly encoded mp3 is just as good and I really couldn't find the time to sort out all my car MD's.
It's got line in and a USB connection too, which is nice.
Not too ugly compared to other new radio's.
Most important, it sounds great. Lot better than my (not bad at all!) previous radio.
So I'm happy with it

That looks pretty sweet, how much was it? It's probably worth more than my car haha. Thinking about getting a new car stereo myself, my current one is the car's original and i have to use a cassette adapter to listen to my ipod. One of my speakers is also blown so i might replace them soon as well.

Not so expensive. It was 149 euro's, which is about 128 pounds.
My car is worth about 850 pounds here

Zer0 · 01-29-2011, 05:22 PM

149 euro isn't too bad i guess. Kinda looking for a good one in around the 70-100 euro range. I presume that one has a removable facade?

s_k · 01-29-2011, 05:26 PM

It has.
You can just about buy any radio in this range. It's pretty good.
The 4200 is mainly the same only with a more simple display.
I reckon you should be able to find that four about 100 quid.
You'll still have SD, USB, Line in. It's just a bit more ugly and a bit more simple.
Same amplifier, should sound the same.

Please note: MEH-4200SD is not the same as MEH-4200BT.
The SD has an SD card, the BT has Bluetooth. Pioneer has no radio with both for a reasonable price.
Believe me, I've tried.

I don't really care much about looks, as long as it sounds good, plays CDs well and has a USB connection. I must keep an eye out for a Pioneer at a good price.

s_k · 01-29-2011, 07:56 PM

Allright

DEH-1200UB.
It's good
It's cheap (about 60-70 quid)
Get it before the world ends
