Review on Pioneer MVH 280FD: Unleash Your Audio Experience with Cutting-Edge Radio Technology by Hideo Tsushi ᠌

I took to replace the Pioneer MVH-150UBG. I doubted the choice because of the design, but the technical component prevailed and decided to try. I want to remind you that the real rated power of this radio is about 2 times higher and is about 38-42 watts per channel, which is confirmed by tests. At the time of the replacement, there were acoustics "for radio" in the doors: - component front - Pioneer TS-G173Ci; - coaxial rear - Pioneer TS-G1322i. After reinstalling, I immediately felt an increase in power. With the MVH-150UBG, the speakers began to distort at volumes of "30-32". With MVH-280FD, this threshold has shifted to "36-38". Equalizer settings are the same here and there: 2-1-0-1-3. In terms of the sound itself, I did not notice any cardinal changes for the better at low and medium volumes. Pioneer speakers turned out to be very mediocre, but I always thought that it was the radio. Therefore, I immediately wanted to change them, which I did. Bought: - component front - JBL GT7-6C; - coaxial rear - JBL GT7-5. The music played better. The distortion threshold has moved even further, to a volume of "44-46". It is a pity that it was not possible to compare the radio with the new speakers. I think the difference would be much more noticeable. As a result, I want to say that this radio is suitable: - those who have at least average sound quality speakers with not exorbitant rated power; - who doesn't want to bother installing additional amplifiers, and wants to get a small increase in the power of their audio system.
