I’m not pushing Pioneer, I know it’s a great product. I have one in my 370Z.
I’m not pushing Kenwood, I know it’s a great product. I have one in my Explorer.

Yeah man, win-ville wouldn't be in a desert, or in a forest.

My apology to the OP; just one person does not know how to take a question seriously. I hope the info I posted helps you with what to get. As I said if you need any help just let me know.

I like that Alpine doesent bloat their Double Din head units with carp you dont need. I like the fact that Nav is a plug n play option plus you can get your bluetooth through the Nav module.

I dont need Sattelite/HD Radio nor do I want it. I don't like paying for features I am never going to use.

The IPOD interface is awesome and works flawlessly. Plus the sound quality is very close to CD. I have compared back and forth and there is very little difference that I can discern.

The screen resolution is first rate for DVD's

My only complain is its only 2V pre-outs. I wish it were 7V!

I will say this about Imprint! Its much more than an eq! Its an excellent 3-way electronic crossover plus it has 5V pre-outs.

Kenwood and Pioneer, Eh! I have never owned one I liked nor owned one that lasted more than a year and a half. I will stick with Alpine or Eclipse, they last!

Quick question. Have you guys considered building a carPC using Centrafuse as a frontend + a touchscreen, instead of going with a traditional head unit? I mean once once have a carPC setup the possibilities are endless.

In addition to Music, navigation etc. you can also display things
like realtime gauges. Here is an example of GTR gauges in a RX8
