WHICH ONE?????

i just saw the new clarion VRX925VD tv/dvd/cd/mp3 hu that just came out and was wondering if it is worth the 1999.99 sticker, or if i should just go ahead and spend a little more and get the alpine tv/dvd/cd/mp3 (2400.99)? i've had a clarion hu before and it was alright, but i've never tried one of their tv's so i'm not really certain about their quality. i know alpines are good, but which one should i go with? also, is the clarion gonna be able to be connected to a navigation system? i know for a fact that alpine has an available powerNAV system.

There's a kenwood DVD/TV/CD/MP3 that has a touchscreen, i think it's around that price but if you're willing to spend 2400 i'd go with Pioneer's indash DVD. 7" fold out screen, all of pioneer's AMAZING audio controls and Dolby Digital Surround sound, that way you don't have to waste the money on a dolby decoder box.

first of all, i dont like pioneer or kenwood tv's, i've had both, and am aware of the prices of each. i was asking if anyone had tried the clarion tv, not who makes tv's. i work part time in a car audio shop, but we havent gotten in any of the new clarion tv indash units, so i was wondering if anyone has played with one yet, and if they are worth even concidering. the clarion also has a touch screen, and all of the features of the kenwood. if the clarion cant match up to the alpine, im gonna get the alpine. those are the only 2 options i am concidering.

The CLarion is a good unit.. as well you shoudl check out Panasonics in dash unit. It was a better screen.

As for Eclipse.. it's top quality construction..but they use kinda crappy screens.. vid quality isn;t that great..

Cheers
