Whats up everyone,

Im about to order the In-dash unit, and I just wanted to ask, is that worth to buy the cda117 for about 250$ or I can buy some better unit

for this price?

I wanna upgrade my system and I want to start from the head unit.

Next step will be the big3, and new amp for the subwoofers

Sony Xplode in dash - (dont remember the model .. but its nothin special)

Sony Xplode 1100watt amp

Rockford Fosgate p2's 12"

Pioneer GM-D9500F

Alpine Type R 6x9"

Alpine SPR-17S 6.5" Component 2 Way Speaker

And I have the 3sixty laying in the garage, its so sensitive on the grounding that I cannot use it...

ps. sorry for my english :)

sometimes Loud is NOT pretty

Sounds like its safe to go ahead and bend that ass over.

I love my CDA-117 and I didn't and still don't feel like I could have done better for the money I spent.

Overall its a great H/U (Head Unit) under any circumstances. Whether you are new to car audio or an experienced installer or a sound quality fanatic or just a strait up bass head this unit has you covered.

One thing that I am very proud about is that Alpine has made navigating the menus very easy and simple with just minor practice and the non clipping 4 volt pre outs are a big deal.

You also have the choice of using a paramic EQ or a normal graphic EQ and that alone covers a lot of ground. It offers a highpass crossover that can be turned on as low as 60 hertz and is a big deal whether you are running amps or just using the CDA-117's built in amp on factory speakers.

The only thing that it doesn't offer is a variable built in low pass crossover. I've tuned amps for so many years that its not a huge deal but I do like to run my old school amps from time to time that it would have been nice to have this feature.

So I give the CDA-117 a 9 out of 10.
