That's super cheap, best buy, visions all had 64gb for $29 but I picked it up at London drugs cuz it was San Disk is that means a difference. I went to visions on marine but the decks I wanted to check out either was sold or didn't have any demos (wasn't as good as picking up grin the states)

Ended up getting this setup (bought the dash cam black Friday) from Visions yesterday. Think it's going to be a tad of an upgrade from the stock head unit I have.

I did. Went to to the airport outlets. Wasn't too bad. Got there around 9:30 am. Had to drive around the outlets to the overflow parking lot. But still only a short 3 min walk to the outlets. Went to eat at Japadog around 11 and you can see all the cars stopped on Arthur Laing Bridge waiting to get into the outlets. I feel bad for anyone who was trying to get to the airport at that time.

I have the DDX771 and I wouldn't get it again. I guess there were 2 versions. One with HDMI input and one without. I can't do screen mirroring. My next purchase will have screen mirror and apple play. Only way to fly. I wan't to be able to run Waze and my phone through the deck

Berz out.

That looks like a good haul, I was looking at that Kenwood but it sold out already and yea I've had a Kenwood dd before and it had screen issues and was quite slow. Pioneer is much better. I was tempted because it was much cheaper than getting in the states, was excelon (so higher range?) and it was for my parents so most features won't be used.

I'm wondering if I should bother to go check out sounds good? But they don't list their deals online

Sounds Good is having their Boxing week sale:
https://www.revscene.net/forums/7140...oundsgood.html

Definitely check them out. Prices are highly competitive, and they are an RS sponsor.

for $198.00 for the din I couldn't pass it up, I'm mainly only using it for the radio and iphone connection so I wasn't all that concerned about the speed.

They should just list sales, such a busy time of year, can't expect people will come in on the chance they might have something they want.

I wonder if local shops like these do install services on equipment that was not purchased from their store.

Lots of good deals out there, but I am second guessing having the equipment/components installed via a Big Box Shop (i.e. Best Buy or Visions).

Definitely would be nice to see listed prices, but they have a video floating around Facebook where the video quality is good enough that you can see the prices on the various items for sale. For example, pioneer 4201NEX is $880.

I just picked up a CarPlay capable deck at Soundsgood in Burnaby. Walked in, saw Keith, he showed me a few things and I walked out within 10 minutes of going in.

I knew enough about decks that I didn't need to ask anything............. until I realized how things have changed. I trust him, so bought what he recommended. Good deal it was.


Addendum........... please don't pm me about how much I paid. It's all about being a good customer and not a dick. There are no prices listed in a flyer because it's not that kind of a place. Trust me when I say there were some good deals. I wasn't looking for speakers, but there were some that were deeply discounted. Just go in and get to know them. Plain and simple. Find the time. It's well worth it.
