Post Number: 4035 Registered: Feb-06 | going to order a new hu later, probably by midnight, so just looking for suggestions. was going to go pioneer but want to try something different this time. also considered alpine but they either have to low of preout voltage or when you get above that they kinda look stupid imo with the display/button colors. so i think it's one of these 3. all look kinda nice, unless someone has had a personal problem with one in particular. http://www.crutchfield.com/S-vtVoGsfpXxZ/cgi-bin/ProdComp.asp?g=300&s=0&cc=01&hi desimilar=&compareitems=099CD3100&removeitems=099CD3100&compareitems=113KDCX791& compareitems=133C8803&compareitems=113KDCX990 and yes, going to order from here if i get one of these. oh, and all i listen to is mixtapes/cd's so ipod/mp3 player options is not a big deal. basically biggest concern is 4v or higher preouts, 3 preouts, and build quality. |

It probly wouldve went longer but it was my user error that broke it lol. Anyways for $50 bucks more, the 990 is what I would do. |

Gold Member Username: Nd4spd18Southeast PA Post Number: 1681 Registered: Jul-06 | You mean you ARE going to order from there? You know they are waaaaaaaaaaaaay overpriced right? But anyway, I would take the Panasonic. Kenwood's amps suck as$, so how good can their HUs be........ |
Gold Member Username: CtmikeCt. Post Number: 4036 Registered: Feb-06 | yeah, if i order one of those three, i'll probably get it from there. being financially a single father money doesn't come my way alot, so i figured i'd get it from an authorized dealer with extended 2 year warranty. plus i have the money saved up so it's not like it's more money i have to shell out then planned. and of all the authorized dealers near me/online crutchfield is actually the cheapest i've found. go figure. |
Silver Member Username: Gh0st_31FL USA Post Number: 384 Registered: May-06 | kenwood makes solid decks, I have about 4-5 people I know that own them and they havent sh!tted out once on them. And that is their lower end. Their amps do suck but it doesnt mean their HUs do |

Silver Member Username: Mrskullz1Brooklyn, New York Post Number: 190 Registered: Feb-07 | kenwood makes great H/U's. I have a friend who owns a kenwood H/U and its awesome. Sounds/looks really nice and has plenty of features. IMO I would go with the 3rd headunit on that page. Crutchfield is overpriced but it has excellent service and wont let you down. If not ebay, crutchfield is great. |
Gold Member Username: CtmikeCt. Post Number: 4039 Registered: Feb-06 | thanks for all the suggestions. yeah that 3rd one does look nice, and especially since it's like half off. hopefully i'll get my hu and some wiring ordered tonight. |
