Alpine 9833 or Premier 880prs?

Just as the title states, Which one would you choose? And why? I'm more into sq, and I just got a new car, so should i go with a new 880prs or keep my 9833? The H/U will be pushing my new Boston Pro60's and my new Memphis amps, along with my type-x. So which one?

the 880 offers much more tweakability

Out of those i'd easily take the premier, for the audio controls and the fact that HU would be at least what 2 years old.....and the premier being new.. premier FTW

Since you already have the 9833, just use it and listen. If you like what you hear, then save the money and enjoy the sound. If not, then go for the new Pioneer. I think sometimes we all get too worried about another option perhaps sounding better, etc but in the long run, once installed we usually end up pretty happy with what we chose. Just seems you have little to lose by using what you alrerady own and giving it a chance. If you go with the Pioneer first you will never know if the 9833 in your new system would have been as good, better than, etc. My 2 pennies worth //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

I agree with this guy. I'm a Pioneer freak and I still agree with this guy. You already own the 9833 so the fairest thing you could do to yourself would be to hook it up with your existing deck first. If then you are still BORED of that deck then the 880 would be a very worthy replacement.
