Get a Pioneer (7000 series) or an Eclipse player, you'll thank yourself later. I couldn't tell you how many people reported problems with their Alpines where I work, personally I think they're one of the ugliest headunits out there anyway, and you could do much better then Clarion too, good luck and GO FLYERS! Payce.

I'm not sure about the clarion but i can tell you that the 7400 is awesome and is probably 1 of the only headunits that the display can be seen in our cars during the day. The only downside is they take a while to switch songs on an mp3 disc.

i'll compare the 2 for you
display - both can be seen if tweaked, pioneer has mosre animation, clarion has 727 more colors than the pioneer
mp3 - clarion wins by far
output signal - same
eq - basically the same
clarion has aux input, pioneer you need to buy an adapter for aux in
anything else i missed?

Just stay away from the Sony HU
but I agree, I think you should go with an Eclipse, THE BEST SHIET OUT RIGHT NOW
they dont LOOK the best, but they are awasome H.U.

BTW - I haven't had of any problems with my Alpine at all. Hadn't even heard of any....
