CDA-7949, and the all time favorite in soundoffs from the early 90's, the CDA-7909.

7909/7914/7915

7940/7949

F1

Dunno poop about the newer ones tho sorry.

 

[grampi 10+ year member]

Any of the 79XX series.

7909 was overrated and an ok unit for the day " I know I have owned two haha"

7909J was mucho better

7949 was top dog for a player only and one of my favs, had one in two comp vehicles "sold the car and transfered it to another". Bad arse deck back then. I bought another 7949 awhile back and used it for about 9 months before I went to the 9835.

9815 was a nice unit

The last good ones were the 7998, the 9835 "my fav" and some say the 9855 but I was not a fan of the unit.

and the 9887 looks to be the new king of the ring / 9835 clone with updated features and faceplate. Only time will tell if it is worth a poop or not.

Out of every single one, I still think the 9835 is the best built, best overall affordable unit alpine has made since the 7949.

Here is a pic of one of my 7949's with a rare imported alpine EQ under it...

Here is me old 9835...

my vote would be the 9990

another good one on a budget was the 9833/9835
