Ok so I have searched, and searched, and have found some ideas on alternative mics, but no one has given a definite answer as to whether or not they are having luck with an alternative, obviously cheaper, mic than offered by pioneer. I have found them on ebay, for 40 bucks, but everywhere cheaper they are sold out.
I just got the bluetooth module for my z1 on ebay for 50 bucks and in the works for getting an ungraded HD from Garrett since he is in my area, so figure this is the last thing I need before I install the z1 in place of my d3.
any one had any luck using another mic??
