The Clarion is nice, it just doesn't have an EQ built in.

I really like the one I have. I suspect this one will be as good or better

JVC slave :p

Well I bought one, just wasnt on that list. I ended up buying the JVC KD-AR7000

Has all the features I want, all the specs I could want also.

If this one ends up sucking I will just probably buy the Alpine

Pioneer has some good EQ features as well. My new DEH P9600mp has a 13 band EQ with time adjustments and even an auto EQ. It comes with a corded microphone that you clip to your headrest and it does a series of tests to perfectly adjust your eq. Of course you get out the car, but it does work well. I don't know if it adjusts it perfect, but it made mine sound far better than a flat setting.

JVC has some interesting features, but nothing that I personally would find useful. The Alpine has many more tuning options including a much better crossover system, time alignment features, and a far superior EQ compared to the JVC. I guess it depends on what you are looking for in your head unit, but for my needs, the Alpine looks like the best.

The Clarion looks to have some useful EQ / Crossover features as well, but from the little I've read about it, it doesn't appear to have the level of features that the Alpine has. That's just my 2 cents.

I didnt even look at that.

I could split it up though.

Errr I will probably end up with the JVC. THis Alpine is getting rich for my blood.

The other Alpine looks alright and the features seem good. But that JVC has some cool sounding features.

That one is pretty good. The only thing I don't like about it is that it only has one preout. (HDA-5460)

If you don't get that one, then go for the other Alpine.

by Ryan from Ohio » Sat Oct 09, 2004 8:01 am

I just put a bid on the Alpine HDA-5460.

That looks awesome. No more CD's at all, just a 16 gig hard drive. That can hold around 3000 MP3's

by Ryan from Ohio » Sat Oct 09, 2004 2:14 am

The JVC has some wicked features. Voice commands. It also tell you what its doing (Voice confirmation). Sounds like it actually talks back to you.

I also see the Alpine with the 16 gig Hard Drive in it for about $400. I could probably do that also.
