I've been looking into retro, period-correct aftermarket radios for my car. Apparently, Blaupunkt was putting aux inputs on their top end headunits as far back as the early 80s. Just sucks that all the shit is exorbitantly expensive

>>17240754
Because it's a niche market, not necessarily quality.

>>17240754
Its so expensive because retards buy them anyways. So they can charge crazy stupid prices because dumbasses eat it up, kinda like apple products....

The sound system in my newest shitbox a shit.
Was considering going with a 1/2 din CD player and a 1/2 din EQ underneath it since I never listen to the radio. Bad idea or no?

>>17240796
> 1/2 din
Is this a thing, or do you mean single-din?

Naw, I have seen a couple dedicated CD players with SD, USB and AUX inputs like pic related.
I only have a 1DIN opening so I was thinking the half CD and half EQ underneath it would look pretty retro with actual buttons and no gaudy displays, but prove more reliable than running cassettes.

Cool, you can join the circlejerk of vinyl, masters of inferior tech.

>>17240938
Vinyl isn't inferior tech, tape is.

Anyway, I don't use tapes, I have a stealth fm/bluetooth/usb charger thing.

>>17240938
You could make a case for Vinyl considering that it's a pure analog signal, the groove carved into it mirrors the original sound's waveform.
This means that no information is lost.

A tape deck, not so much despite being analog.

>>17241013
honestly I don't really mind saying its inferior tech/sound quality. just bought it to replace my 90's aftermarket headunit that looked too 90's man. I like the simplicity of the 80's; modern units just weren't doing it for me

>>17241046
This really I've looked at a lot of aftermarket head units and I can't find one that has the same clean simple design or one that looks as nice in the dashboard.

Got given it for free, can't get radio signal.

So I dunno if it's buggered, my aerial adaptor sucks, the aerial just happened to break or if it was somehow made to only work with stock headunit. (Has a broken power button, couldn't turn back on after swapping radios to test).

Doesn't matter too much since I don't listen to the radio. Would be nice to have it working though.

Might be a good place to ask: AUX function doesn't seem to work, even with the cable plugged in. I got it to swap to AUX one or two times for a half second, then it blipped back to FM.
Bad AUX cable? Button broken? Ideas?

I'm so jealous of you, my 87 only has a tape deck, and there's a fucking tape stuck in it. I have to pull out the entire unit to get it out, and at that point, I think I'm just gonna replace it with a nice double DIN radio of some sort.

It depends on the radio -
http://www.instructables.com/id/Auxiliary-Port-for-Any-RadioCassette-Player-Monsoo/

On my setup since it had a CD changer input I just wired the ipod adapter to the aux in for the changer, then bridged 2 pins with a resistor so the radio thinks there is a CD changer actually present (in my case I can still use the tape deck and radio normally if I wanted to). As long as you get a bigger brand deck that audiophiles actually like (Alpine, Blaupunkt, Pioneer, Kenwood, etc.) chances are someone has figured out how to wire in an external audio source and posted how to do it on the internet.

>>17245402

It's a little too expensive for me, and that one advertised isn't 100% functional, if I'm paying that much for both I want them working.

If I find an old 80s Alpine/kenwood tape deck can I just go out and find any 80s car EQ and run it as a double din setup?
