RIPSPEED DVD in halfords DV101

[livefreeordie]

what do you think of it? ive been looking for something like this for ages and this seems half decent for the price that is £399 (half price) even though its made by ripspeed lol,

is it a good buy or should i consider something else?

 

[pablo]

saw this the other day too - looks great value! At least it will have a yrs warranty too unlike what youd get off ebay for that price.

 

[livefreeordie]

yea mate i agree, however it does look a bit plasticy when closed but i suppose u cant have it every way

 

[J55NI]

mate bought one of these seems to be good quality .

speak to jason_mcq off the site he works in halfords, hell tell u if its much good or not

 

[Richy]

i reckon they're class. selling quite a lot of them, easy to fit, well put together and there isnt THAT many wires out the back to confuse people.

 

[Rik]

Noticed these myself thought it looked alot better than alot of others i'd seen for bigger money

The only thing is there'll be a far better one next month at the same price, the value of them is dropping everyday

 

[buff]

deffo seem to be decent enough quality

much better than other offereings ive seen

they play MP3 from DVD's as well so thats 4.7GB of MP3!!!! dunno how muny tracks it is but its a brave few lol

 

[baron]

fitted one of these to a lexus the other day, have to say i was supprised at what all you get for the money so defo a from me on the value for money and not a bad we unit if you caould live with the ripspeed graphics built into the menu's

 

[OLLIeCrX]

ripspeed graphix built into the menus... loverly

probably a decent bit of kit for £399 going on the fact tey have to warranty them.. its a bit different selling it on ebay where u just say ah me no speaka de engleeesssse and u have no warranty.

tho realistically they are not going to be the same screen quality of say higher end alpine / kenwood / pioneer etc so dont go buying one expecting it to be identical.

easy fitment, cheap price... they`ll sell by the bucket load.

oh and are they remote controlled or touch screen?

no touch screen was a bit of a let down esp when you get so used to using it on the high end stuff, i kept touching the screen for the controls and had to keep thinking for a mo why nothing was happening doh!!, but for the price what can you expect, and on another plus note, it had 5.1 out from the rca's so no need for out board processor, one promblem i did find was i could only get front and sub line out output from the tuner no rears working, but in dvd mode ithe rear output was working, not sure if it was just a setting thing

 

[Richy]

we've got the alpine, pioneer and ripspeed screens all on display together, and im hard pushed to pick one with noticabely better screen quality...

you need to connect the subs to the front output on the hu then it'll all work as one

yeah the quality of the screens is all very good now, the main difference i have noticed is in the sound quality. the cheap ones lag behind a bit. but they are getting better...

 

[blackclio_16vni]

im in the coleraine store and have a Alpine 310d and i hav to say the picture quality on the Ripspeed screen is better BUT the sound lets the ripspeed screen down a lot.

Overall a top unit for the money mate!!

I was fitting it to a six channel amp, and the customer wanted independant control from the head unit for front, rear and sub

 

[lee-r33]

lol sounds like fun i had that problem with the tuner not working the subs and that solved it.
