    Kenwood Head Units

    Yep, I think you're right! I guess sometimes I tend to over think things.....just trying to make the right decision. Thanks to all for sharing your thoughts and comments with me along the way.

    Kenwood Head Units

    In my current situation, the 24bit dac is important to me because I do still play the silver disks. The front aux in is important to me because I will be playing Pandora Internet Radion from my laptop via the aux in. (this deck will be installed in the cabin of my boat...not in a car.) I...

    Do you happen to remember how long the aux in pigtail is that comes out of the rear of the unit?

    Kenwood Head Units

    I agree that the 693 is a great head unit, but it doesn't have the front aux in or front usb that I need. I noticed in your tag line that you have a Pioneer. Do you have a feeling which would be better...... Pioneer 6100BT has front aux in and front usb, plays AAC, but no 24bit dac. or...

    Kenwood Head Units

    Thank you to all who have replied to my questions. As of right now, not being able to read AAC files will not affect me. My concern though is that the future may trend towards the AAC as some have inplied the sound quality is better with that format. I like the fact that it has 24bit dac...

    I'm sorry, I don't have an answer for you. If you don't mind, I have a question for you. I'm considering buying this unit as well, and am wondering if it has an "aux in" on the front panel, or if it is only rear?

    Kenwood Head Units

    I see a lot of praise recently for the Kenwood Head Units especially for the X693 and the x993. I'm looking at the X493 because of the front "aux in" and the front usb. But the X493 does not do AAC files where as the X693 does. How important do you think this is? Should it be a deal breaker...

    Which 6.5 coax will sound more musical than Polk DB651

    How would the MbQuarts DKH116 stack up to these? How do the sound from these speakers differ? Would these sound good just off the 22rms from the head unit?

    Which 6.5 coax will sound more musical than Polk DB651

    As far as the budget goes.....I love a great deal as much as anyone, but if the speakers were truly awesome, I would consider up to $200/pair. But keep in mind I want them to be able to sound really good just off the head units power if at all possible.

    Which 6.5 coax will sound more musical than Polk DB651

    Which 6.5 coaxial speaker will have a warmer natural sound than the Polk DB651 when running on the head unit's 22rms mosfet power. I do not want a bright, hard, steril sounding tweater. Thanks for sharing your ideas.

    What's the best coaxial speaker that will work off 35 RMS watts..

    Which coaxial speaker works the best with only 35 rms watts or even just the 22rms mosfet watts from pioneer head unit? Not looking for a bright or edgy sounding speaker but rather a warmer balanced sound.

    morels,rainbow,dls,focals??

    What does this mean? I'm 44 and looking for some good coaxials. I was wondering about both the Morel Tempo 6C and the Rainbow SL165. How does the sound differ between them? How much power do they need to get them to sing? Would 35RMS watts from an old Soundstream 5 channel amp work well...
