|
Gold Member Username: Nyyfan13Fi SSD USA Post Number: 7105 Registered: Jul-06 | with my new system im saving up for, im gonna upgrade to a new/better HU....hopefully a flipout/monitor....ive been looking at a few of them and ive came up with the fact that im gonna have to spend around $1k for a solid one. my criteria for them is simple, must be able to play mp3 cds and dvds. also must be able to have navigation.... these are a few ive looked at: http://www.woofersetc.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=product.display&Product_ID=5502 http://www.woofersetc.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=product.display&Product_ID=3797 http://www.woofersetc.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=product.display&Product_ID=5731 http://www.woofersetc.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=product.display&Product_ID=3792 http://www.woofersetc.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=product.display&Product_ID=5791 ^^^doesnt say anything about playing cds/mp3s but im gonna assume it does....right? http://www.woofersetc.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=product.display&Product_ID=5024 http://www.woofersetc.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=product.display&Product_ID=5925 http://www.woofersetc.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=product.display&Product_ID=6080 obviously i havent narrowed much of anything down yet. prices vary from $750-$1300. i dont know much about these things. any of these on the list unreliable? crappy? needs to be taken off the list for consideration? any of you own any of these or know much about them and can lead me in a ood direction? shold i get a flipout or just go with a 7" monitor? pros/cons? |

Post Number: 3104 Registered: Feb-06 | http://www.eclipse-web.com/avn/avn5495overviews.html dont get the panasonic, especially if it's a christmas present, because it doesn't look that great and doesnt have that many incredible features... i really want the unit in the system i showed you... it's got a 3,000 song hard drive to hold songs, good eqs, and a lot of other features |

Gold Member Username: Denali_on_22sYou can call me Scroog... Post Number: 3139 Registered: Feb-06 | i've found the only problem with alpine is the low pre volt outs |
|
Gold Member Username: Nd4spd18Northwest PA Post Number: 4166 Registered: Jul-06 | And how is that a problem? Thats why amps have gain controls, to match the source unit. |

|
Gold Member Username: InsearchofbassPost Number: 7221 Registered: Jun-04 | ive heard eclipse headunits in the past years and years back that claimed 8 volts out were actually a true 4 volt out......the car stereo shop I used to work at measured one...but according to Glasswolf a while back I heard the alpine headunits a few years back claimed 4 volts but were 2 volts true back when they made the 9805 and such I believe |

Post Number: 3198 Registered: Feb-06 | well... from the reviews i heard you alomst have to buy the audio processor, another 300 bucks, for that unit to sound good... line drivers aren't as effective as having a higher voltage from the beginning... |
