many are fooled by apple's lossless format.

How many times can a signal go from A/D to D/A to A/D, anyway? You'd think it would all get lost or converted to heat along the way or something.... //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/laugh.gif.48439b2acf2cfca21620f01e7f77d1e4.gif

Get an Eclipse 8053, put some CD's in it and rock out with your **** out!

I like my 9887, after messin with an 880 I like those too. Atleast the EQ anyways. But Ive always been an Alpine fan and I just love the layout of my deck.

Why in God's name are you concerned with "SQ" if you're going to be listening to an Ipod? //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/confused.gif.e820e0216602db4765798ac39d28caa9.gif

My thoughts exactly. Not so harsh though, heh. Maybe he normally listens to cds but when his girl is in the car, he's whipped and lets her throw on the iPod to listen to her Paris hilton music.

You win the jackpot, lol. That is EXACTLY the reason....I always listen to CD's, but the girl has to have the whole computer library in her hands, lol

Get a Clarion DRZ9255 and call it aday.. around 650$ ish or 615$ free ship. One of the BEST you can find compared to McIntosh line. Because Clarion makes HU for McIntosh and rebrand it.

It doess all kinds of things that a 9887 or other HU can do except MP3 . Time correction, eq , and most importantly is the DUAL 24 Bit converter in that separate power supply .

I've had a older series of that JDM HU and it's just WOW. The music comes alive. Every single detail that the artist sings or play comes all out to my speakers. The 9887 of alpine does not have that DEtail and CLarity of the Clarion. Now i throw over 100 cds of mp3 on my car and begin to burn FLAC Audiophile albums to CDs.

The new DRZ9255 is very promising, the one i had didn't have all that fancy adjustment available and it can only play CDs , no time correction , only bass treble knob. 2 pre outs lol //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

I own a 9887 and it is very dissapointed HU for all the advertisement that alpine put on those Multi EQ imprint . After using the Clarion, all that time correction or EQ that Alpine has is just a big FAIL. I wish i know the clarion earlier so i don't waste 350$ on that deck. I'm pretty happy with my clarion and the SQ it has. I just leave everything flat, tune it right on the amps and no need to adjust anything else.

for me i'd get a nice clarion or kenwood excelon head unit with an Audiocontrol EQS and 6XS. that would get your the sound quality that you'd be looking for.

Maybe you fail for not knowing how to T/A or EQ?

Your amps must have some major processing capabilities like those Zapcos to leave everything flat on your HU and still have this thing you call SQ.

Because, if you like to, you can have uncompressed music on an iPod, it's not just a MP3 player.

Lol aint that the truf. Unless he got some serious pathlengths going on I doubt he doesn't need t/a, even then in a car eq is a must to gain this mysterious thing we call "sq"
