Everyone has thier/our faves. I like Alpine because I had an all Alpine system installed in my old 1994 Caravan and I loved it. And while Alpine may be among some of the top consumer grade stuff, most of Alpine's stuff is certainly not best of the best audiophile class equipment. But it does not s u c k either!

Crescendo, ct sounds, jl still making great products. I think all the mature label brands still put out good products you just have to be aware that some of their lower end stuff has gotten significantly lower end be it from acquisition, change country of origin production and materials
