Post Number: 1577 Registered: Jun-07 | i bought that same one recently. it was horrible. do not buy it. it skipped my cd's like no other, cd's i had just made, and sq was BAD. buy a used older alpine or pioneer for 350-450 and you will be happy. thats what i did  got my new alpine for 365. look around the classifieds section over there. theres a pionneer someone is selling right now for 350 in perfect shape... |

Oh, you missed a feature: Known to stop working after very little use. Get a pioneer or alpine. Or if you are on a budget, go with a clarion |

Gold Member Username: Nd4spd18Northwest PA Post Number: 7863 Registered: Jul-06 | Alpine and clarion are good stuff. Pioneer used to be good but the newer ones are prone to RCA problems. |

Bronze Member Username: CozcePost Number: 44 Registered: Mar-08 | How about this? A Clarion VRX585USB. onlinecarstereo.com/CarAudio/ProductDetail.aspx?ProductID=19536 |

Gold Member Username: Nd4spd18Northwest PA Post Number: 7868 Registered: Jul-06 | While I haven't used that particulat unit, clarion in general is good. They're not Alpine though, but I wouldn't think twice about getting one. |

Silver Member Username: Hittin1Lake Charles, La. United States Post Number: 577 Registered: May-07 | only downside to that unit that i noticed was the 2v preouts.. |

Gold Member Username: Tatonka-[Team Audible Insanity]- Post Number: 1919 Registered: Mar-07 | "Alpine and clarion are good stuff. Pioneer used to be good but the newer ones are prone to RCA problems." The majority of the RCA problems I have seen are from user error. "only downside to that unit that i noticed was the 2v preouts.." What is wrong with 2v preouts? |

Bronze Member Username: CozcePost Number: 45 Registered: Mar-08 | I def. think this is the one.

Silver Member Username: VisitorMiddleofnowhere, Minnesota USA Post Number: 205 Registered: Jul-07 | "What is wrong with 2v preouts?" absolutly nothing. its something noobs worry about. the varying preout voltage is the sole reason that gain's are put on amps. set your gain correctly, and its really not a problem. if you are that worried about it, there are several nice line driver units out there. also- not all "4v" or whatever volt rca's are created equal. it is important to know at what ohm that was measured... |

Exactly visitor. Also alot of higher end amps do not like high preout voltage ;) |
