But some of what I have read on here has me concered I am about to buy a head unit of lesser quality than my old one.

I have an Alpine 7915. It has just started to jump a bit when playing discs, so I figured it is time to repair or replace it. It is 19 years old so I cannot complain. From what I have read on here parts are hard to find so it may not be repairable.

I have been told the 7915 was very good quality, and with my Focal splits and 8" Alpine subs, and a couple of amps I had very good sound.

As my 7915 is so old, I was going to replace it with a CDA-117E.

What do you think of the CDA-117E in comparison to my 7915? Will it sound as good?

Any thoughts are appreciated, as I am concerned that a new head unit may not sound as good as my old one.

Cheers,
