coasterlvr Posted June 24, 2008 Report Share Posted June 24, 2008 F90BT...Although it has it's issues right now, the Z series is in great need of an update. I'd still like to have used my CD changer though. I'm still big on uncompressed audio cd's. As slow as the iPod is to start, it seemed to take that long to search from A-D with my old Z1. LOL.

C6VetteRocks Posted June 24, 2008 Report Share Posted June 24, 2008 Z series might be the older series, but new doesn’t make it better. Just use the Pioneer comparison of the Z3 to the F9x. You lose a navigation unit to gain an iPod interface. They didn’t even improve the audio capabilities. Sorry just upping the output to 4v, which requires you to have installed an amp that accepts 4v input already or upgrade it also, is not an improvement just a hype. An upgrade to the Z would start by keeping all the Z features and adding things like: Blu-ray capability, larger hard drive, minimum of 5.1 (7.1 would be state-of-the-art), THX, DTS, a (useful) mute button, “conversational†voice input for navigation. That would be along with the only 3 new F features: better resolution, better iPod, and better Bluetooth. Link to post Share on other sites
