the new Alpines i've dealt with look better than ever, but suck more than ever... i've never siad this before, but if you're going for a new head unit, stay away from the Alpines... just my $.02...

my last 2 pioneers had it (avh-p5700dvd & can't rember the other one), im figuring the new pioneers still have it.

z919

if you can find it (youll love it) the older Kenwood Headunits, Excelons. Sorry to say but new kenwood stuff 2004 and up suck. Try looking for the Kenwood Z919, theyll give you Built in crossovers and they have i believe 4.3 volt preouts so less distortion, they can read mp3 and cdrw cds. they go for about 50-90 bucks on ebay, great head unit

all the companys figured that this year they'd rather go for flashier looks than a 4 volt pre-out. not a good direction IMO

Idk that you would care.... but with the cd3000 and up you can log onto eclipse's internet service and get a sound map for our cars..... tunning all the speakers to the driver....driver and passenger, or the whole car. I just ordered the cd5000, 8v preouts. YEAHBABY!

And basic pioneers have 3.3v preouts i believe.... the 800 series does at least.

I don't like the new Chinese made Alpine nor anything made in China at all, especially the newer products, all sucks...(though I am a Chinese)...

Try to get the older Alpine if you like it, ie. those that were made in Japan, like CDA-7998, 7897...Or get the DVA-7996 or DVA-9965, these are the best units beside F#1 but truely distinguish in quality from other Chinese made stuffs...
