Great Head Unit by Alex K on amazon.com May 4, 2012
I've always been happy with Pioneer stereo equipment and decks, and this is no exception. Install was easy in my 04 Mitsubishi Lancer Ralliart. Has great audio quality, and awesome visuals. Pretty easy to use and has a lot of functionality. I use my phone's ...
 
Terrrrific!!!! by RMP on amazon.com May 4, 2012
First time to purchase a Pioneer product since we've been loyal Sony electronic customers for many years. The Pioneer is rich in features and most import for us, is the user friendly functions design that is incorporated. We purchased the DEH-P8400BH ...
 
Great sound, easy install. by daniel on amazon.com Apr 21, 2012
First time I've installed a radio on my own, the guide was perfect. Took about an hour and a half if you don't count the time I spent figuring out the blue wire needed to be connected. I haven't managed to get my steering wheel controls working (yet) ...
 
An amazing piece of equipment. by Kevin D. Corcoran Jr. on amazon.com Apr 17, 2012
I'll start by saying I'm a loyal Pioneer customer. Every car I've owned has been equipped with aftermarket pioneer receivers. I just installed this in my 2006 Scion XB two days ago and it's incredible! Just about every gripe I've had with previous models ...
 
Easy install...quality product by N1TI on amazon.com Mar 26, 2012
Remarkably easy installation. Easy navigation and control. Bluetooth audio streaming from my HTC Incrediblle works flawless....can actuall control playback from the Pioneer (advance tracks, skip, change folders, etc). The only downside is that callers ...

Not compatible with other Pioneer Products by Charles Cotton "gtChuckie" on amazon.com Jul 7, 2012
Despite being a Pioneer receiver with the connections listed, the product is NOT a plugin replacement for other Pioneer receivers. The basic wiring harness doesn't even match two other Pioneer receivers I have currently insdtalled. Can not be used to ...
 
Its just plain dangerous to use while driving, so what use is it? by Christopher Dean on amazon.com Jun 7, 2012
This is the identical review as the one I did for the 8400's big brother, the 9400 as they are basically the same deck. I just can't believe that ANYONE would make a bluetooth car deck that boasts handsfree and doesn't support voice dialing. I have an ...
 
Flawed head unit from terrible seller by 04armywife on amazon.com May 8, 2012
I was really excited to get this head unit for my husband. He hooked it up to the car and it would not work properly. So we were going to just ship it back and get a new one, however, they had no more in stock. They offered to send it in for repairs but ...
 
unsatisfied by Spencer on amazon.com Apr 17, 2012
Let me first start off by saying in no way do I blame the shipper. They packaged the box correctly and the shipping was super quick. I had been doing a lot of reviewing on this head unit prior to letting my wife know that I was interested in it. After ...

Amazon.com: Customer Reviews: Pioneer DEH-P8400BH CD Receiver
The quality from this head unit is AMAZING! I normally would recommend always running speakers through a separate amp, but honestly (and as somewhat of nut about audio) you don't REALLY need one...The unit will play Pandora (with all its functionalities) if the USB is connected to an iPhone (which I don't recommend - the USB should be connected to a dedicated iPod...If it performed any commonly used function, I'd say it was a good idea, but it doesn't, its really just the fast forward/skip/rewind control...
