.Supra. Posted February 26, 2008 Report Share Posted February 26, 2008 do you think alpine is a better headunit or pioneer because im starting to think pioneer is better at least what i want. Right now i have a alpine 9856 and it doesnt have a whole lot of settings and my bros older pioneer has more settings than mine and so ive been thinkin of blowing my headunit and returning it to try out the pioneer. Somethin like this http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage.jsp?sk...d=1197074854073 by the way i have a top warranty on the headunit thats how i can just try a new one so do you think pioneer is better as far as equalizer settings lmk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
loganberry Posted February 26, 2008 Report Share Posted February 26, 2008 out of the two i prefer pioneer, but look into kenwood too, i love my kenwood hu... it has everything i could want but out of those 2 i like pioneer more, they seem to do more but then again this goes back to ford vs chevy, and so on My F-150 Build GET ON THE BANDWAGON what if they tried messing with the amps when the subs werent louder hahah jk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reinke Posted February 26, 2008 Report Share Posted February 26, 2008 i prefer alpine. i just bought the 9883 and love it. the way the ipod controls on the alpine are to me is its only drawback. the pioneer has a very nice EQ though. it all comes down to personal taste. everyone of the new 2008 model year pioneers i have tested though have only had a max RCA voltage output of 2.9 and they are advertised at 4.0. my alpine has a 3.9 voltage on all 3 sets. i like the the fact that when you run a highs amp with the alpine you can turn the internal amp in the HU off to cut back on distortion and help with heat. in my professional opinion. they are both amazing products. but if i had to buy a new HU it would depend on whether i was doing a SQ set-up or a daily set-up. for SQ and terrific sound and a geat EQ. but not that many people have the alpine, howeve they are usually more expensive. ----reference's---- meade916 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SPL2K Posted February 26, 2008 Report Share Posted February 26, 2008 Pioneer is my favorite. ...then Eclipse for 2nd and Alpine for 3rd. For an SPL only head unit though, Rockford was my favorite.
