[QUOTE="keep_hope_alive, post: 8556081, member: 576029"] I'm actually not a huge fan of the new alpine decks either. They are okay but not as featured as decks of old. I like having a 9 band parametric EQ and the crossover adjustments in a new head unit are good. I like that an app can allow tuning a justments with better graphics. And I prefer sub-level being one button press away, all of which you get with alpine. I readily admit that Pioneer has done a good job of keeping tuning features available in their head units I'm just not impressed with their build quality and their issues. I've been helping people in the forums for years and all too often problem center around having a Pioneer head unit. And within those top units they still use the cheapest components they can get away with to hit a price point. I also don't like their menu structure and how features are accessed. I've also always ran and external DSP and have been very happy with Alpine integration between head unit and DSP. I understand why people use pioneer head units and I don't knock them for doing so it's just not my preference. Sent from my SM-G900V using Tapatalk [/QUOTE]
