caddmann75 Posted March 19, 2007 Report Share Posted March 19, 2007 Hey I'm new to this but groundpounder said just to ask ????s and he said you guys know your shit. So what I really want to know is what is the best head unit for the money. I would like have some subs eventually and some seperates up front. That's about it for now.

roscoe1129 Posted March 19, 2007 Report Share Posted March 19, 2007 I've had excellent luck with Panasonic. lots of options and almost impossible to make skip. I have also used Kenwood alot too though a little higher cost though caused I used the excelon line.

ChevyBoy Posted March 20, 2007 Report Share Posted March 20, 2007 I've had excellent luck with Panasonic. lots of options and almost impossible to make skip. I have also used Kenwood alot too though a little higher cost though caused I used the excelon line. i prolly wasnt even hitting a 145 with my 4 12s and it skipped like a mofo. i loved it though. awesome options especially with the 5v preouts. whatre you looking to get out of this head unit? mp3, wma, navi, dvd? what?

kingsuv Posted March 20, 2007 Report Share Posted March 20, 2007 I run the Alpine IVA-D901 Best deck I've ever had. You just can't go wrong with Alpine decks.

I mean the first minute is ok but that thing just really starts digging deeper and deeper in your earhole till you cant stand it no more. Seems like it does it with relative ease....16 12's on 8 amps.........gotta love it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
