i have the one thats one step up from that one... the KD-SH909... some people will say that JVC's aren't worth a damn... but i like mine, 3 sets of 4 volt outs (the 707 only has 2 volt) only prob is visibility during the day, but mine has lasted me since last october with not one problem ever...

Well man, I took your advice. I bought the SH909. It was $260 shipped. Pretty cheap compared to other places, here's the link:

Damn, that was quick! I have the JVC KD-SH707. If you want mp3, then this is the best HU out there. The Pioneer ones have a long wait betwean the mp3's. This HU has the shortest wait. Plus all other audio quality features are better. 7-band equalizer compared to a 3-band on the Pioneer. I was torn betwean my current HU and the Pioneer Premier 740-MP. The Pioneer's are more flashy though. They've got a better display and some built in crossovers. I had 3-ways, so I didn't need the crossovers. I didn't really want flashy either.

The only difference betwean the KD-SH909 and the KD-707 are the 4-volt pre-outs and the DVD features. No DVD capable, but has some sort of connectivity for DVD? I don't know. I didn't have amplifiers, so I didn't need 4-volt pre-outs. Plus I hear from people that the difference betwean 2-volt pre-outs and 4-volt pre-outs is not very big. Actually quite tiny. I got mine for $238 shipped. I think this HU has the best price/performance ratio of any Mp3 HU out there right now.

You made a good choice! I love mine! [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-blush.gif[/IMG]

Thanks for the support, Grey! I was planning on getting a cd changer and keeping the stock HU but I invested my money in this HU instead. $260 shipped is a good price, I think. I should have it by the time I get back home in two weeks. I'll be going to the Seattle meet 3 days after I get back so I don't know if I'll have time to install it before then but I'll get it in after if I can't.

They all have a 1-bit DAC. This HU has 3 lasers and each one is oversampled 8 times. That's where they get the 24-bit phrase from. Something like that anyway. Maybe 3 pickups and 8x oversampling? [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/IMG]
