[QUOTE="ian.van, post: 5864344, member: 609699"] hey guys, thanks alot for the replies! the 9887 is definitly on the top of my list for HUs, but i have nowhere near 2000 songs.... i have over 20,000... i know i dont have to put all my music on my ipod but whats the point of having a big capacity ipod haha. the W205 looks nice, ive actually been checking that out... also looking at the kenwood ddx514 or 512 can you hookup a external harddrive to the w205? how does the h701 compare to the imprint processor? i tend to not trust anything "automatic" that has to do with audio... id rather use my ears what turned me off from the 9887 is i heard that the rotary knob which changes artist on the ipod...is only 1 speed, so no matter how fast you turn the knob it still will only go at its own pace. although i havnt spent alot of time with a 9887 i have used other alpine decks with ipods and couldnt stand finding music. as far as budget goes, i wanted to keep it under 500 for the deck, but i could stand spending a little more especially if i were to get somthing like the w205 and h701 (thats alot of tweakability it seems) also forgive my n00bishness in car audio but... i hear alot of "active front stage" or "active crossover" does this mean i would bypass my eD crossovers and use the h701 as a crossover? if so id have to get a seperate amp to run my tweeters right?
