[QUOTE="3.5Max6spd, post: 890632, member: 555373"] I 'd visit some shops and play with both before making your decision...... I install on the weekends PT for a local shop, IMO Alpines decks have been mediocre for years The crossover may have lower points, but all you speak of is different on the menu on the 9855's- its is HARDER to use. Glad you like your 9833, but we are not talking about your deck. your opinion- but where's the proof? BTW if you want to know how good a deck sounds you play it set on flat- bells and whistles are to customize the sound how YOU want, not representative of the decks capability to best deliver the recording. A good set of ears can hear the difference between a 24bit deck and a 1 bit deck- the 24bit deck just processes more information efficiently, deliver a more warm uniform sound as you pile on volume- Same as you sit down watching a movie on a RCA home theater system as opposed to one with a Pioneer ELITE or DENON receiver- its just better.
