Been looking at some Alpines. Good, bad, you like something better?

Ward I tend to equate Alpine with Bose. It's middle of the road gear that is well marketed. I've always been a fan of Clarion Pro Audio head units. Eclipse also makes very nice( if a tad less reliable) head units.

alpine makes great headunits as far as im concerned ... some arent that user friendly but if you read the manual you will be aight. Personally i cant afford em so i went for a panasonic ... ill let you guys know how i like it when it gets here.

We've had some great sound from Clarion & Denon.

Being an "old timer" it seems like they've all gone disposable! Things just plain should last longer!!!:)

I've always heard good things about Alpine in general. They used to be considered the top, but that was a few years back & haven't kept track.

Hilo. if you are looking for info on a product before you buy i use this site. www.carreview.com to see the ratings. dont buy from the stores they have on the site but they do have some reviews which would be better then nothing. i ask the reviewers questions about there products all the time and the ones i asked really knw what they are talking about. so check out that site if you guys want some extra info on a product. good luck.
