Default Could you recommend the head-unit?

Dear Sir.

My car is LS430 2001.

My car are installed Lexus original head-unit. It is not installed the marklevision audio system. But I don't know what kind of audio are installed on my car.

Anyway. Many times, I'm falling to passion of more quality of sound.
So, I'm try to research the new head-unit.

My conditions is see below.

Must be
1. More sound quality better than OEM head-unit.
2. Support MP3/WMA
3. Support AUX
4. Support BT.
5. Support Android and Iphone.


Not important but I wish.
1. CD is not important to me.
2. Price is less than 400$
3. Support LCD for title and lyrics.
4. Korean language.


Could you recommend the head-unit for me?

Thank you.



Pioneer AVH-X2600BT 2-DIN ?
Pioneer AVH-X4600BT ?
Pioneer DEH-X9600BHS ?

or any brands? any models?

I went with a Pioneer AVIC 5000 NEX

tons of goodies and will run Apple CarPlay (I need an adapter for iphone5).

Tons if inputs w nav etc. I cant speak to Korean. And I think I paid $500, but you can go with a lower version.

And my car year (2004) needed a Beatsonic adapter $250. But its a model year quirk w 2004.

Dear biacs.

Thank's your reply.

I was search this head-unit on youtube.

I feel that the Pioneer AVIC 5000 NEX is very wonderful and powerful system.

Thank you.

I think the Pioneer NEX lineup is a really good choice but most of them are very difficult to find right now. I think they display Korean if I’m not mistaken. I had an older Pioneer P4200DVD and listened to a lot of Korean and Japanese music on it. The 3500NEX and 4500NEX were my personal favorites but the most difficult to get and higher than your budget. There is a 2550NEX just below them that should fit your needs and be in your price range. It’s also easier to find as well.
