i need your opinion(HEADUNIT)

well, so far there's 2 HU's on my list

the JVC-LHX550(i actually played around with this at fry's and liked it)
http://www.digitaladvisor.com/car-el...0_reviews.html

and the Alpine CDA-9847(i've been seeing some good reviews on it)
http://www.crutchfield.com/S-L9cXZDU...0&I=500CDA9847

i haven't seen any reviews on the jvc HU yet so im really not sure if they will last. the alpine is about 100 cheaper than the jvc. do you think it's worth it?

i would very much appreciate other hu suggestions to0.

btw, i also like the Phanton face feature on some of the alpine HU's like this

I don't like JVC's SQ so I'd stick with alpine.

My vote goes for the alpine.

i used to have pioneer 940mp and the alpine 9847 is way better in terms of sq. go look on crutchfield at the pages and pages of reviews for alpine average 5/5 stars.
