Yet another Aurion head unit thread (Polaris opinions?)

[Darren69]

Hullo all,

any experience with these?

Have read through a few threads here and I understand the 'get what you pay for' mantra, I use it quite a bit myself. But has anyone tried the Polaris product out? No relation to the snowmobile mob, I am told. They can also supply the fascia, as below-

 

yes, as you are guessing, my CDP has finally refused to play discs. Will talk to Toyota about their 'exchange program' regarding the units as well.

It has been fun, loading the CD with baited breath, waiting to see if you are going to get music today or not, haha, checking the 'mood' of the player. It would not play, eject, eject and then draw back in and play, who knows, it was like a car mounted card machine, haha.

I've not even begun investigating a replacement head unit for mine.

My cd player shat itself not long after I bought the car. My wife put a disc in and it got stuck. Had to open it up to get the disc out.

It still doesn't work and I don't really care anyway. I don't use CDs in cars, I like the radio better.

I enjoy my music proper on a home HiFI system.

If you need to, just hook up and MP3 player.

Yes, apart from beer and motorcycles,  hi fi is my other passion so I do have a mega system. However it tells no lies, a bad production will be amplified haha. Some productions are best left in the car as that's where they tend to sound the best, IMO.

Unless beer is involved. Then everything sounds awesome, haha.
