[QUOTE="keep_hope_alive, post: 8345119, member: 576029"] i don't like either option. the Clarion has a cheap faceplate and minimal display - it's a pain to tune. the Pioneer is a pioneer - so it's crossovers are terrible, common features are buried in a menu, and they are easily prone to noise. people seem to desire head units because they are active capable, but so are many modern and old school amplifiers. The Alpine CDE-147BT gives nice tuning features (BT, MX, 9-band parametric, time alignment, crossovers, 6-channel 4V, etc.) and interfaces at $200. the display is simpler, and the 154, 148 or 149 offer better displays with the same internals at slightly higher prices.
