GIXXERUK 0 Posted November 18, 2004 Hi i'm taking my kenwood h/uout and want fit my pioneer, the lead (power ,speakers etc) has no connector on the end , so rather than cut the wires off the kenwood and splice them over can i buy an iso connector and make it up ? i hate messy wiring with connectors or soldering, i'dprefer to spend a little time and make a tidy job of it ps. kev did the 8600 come with a microphone that reads the cars accoustics and sets up the equaliser ? cheers paul Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pablo_vr6 0 Posted November 18, 2004 you can buy bare ISO blocks with wires hanging out. both M and F. halfords etc do them. as for the 8600 i think it did come with auto eq. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kevin Bacon 5 Posted November 18, 2004 ps. kev did the 8600 come with a microphone that reads the cars accoustics and sets up the equaliser ? Yeah it did mate.... I prefer doing things manually though and I think that only works when the unit is in "NW" mode (switch on side of the case)? I haven't read the manual yet :oops: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pablo_vr6 0 Posted November 18, 2004 should be ok in STD mode - Kev I think you should try it it works VERY well :) I guess you are using NW mode in which case it may not work. on the 9400 it doesnt work in NW mode but on the P1/P99/P945 it works in both IIRC.

Kevin Bacon 5 Posted November 18, 2004 Cheers Pablo, it's got to come out again anyway to feed the wires in properly, so I'll plug the Mic in when I do that and give it a whirl :lol: I'm not in NW mode yet as I haven't run some extra speaker wires down....or run some 4 guage up for the extra amp yet (sub). I hate car wiring this time of year :? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
