Lookie what the Ups man brought me...

Finally got my head unit situation locked down //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/cool.gif.3bcaf8f141236c00f8044d07150e34f7.gif

I can't wait to get it in and start tweakin. I would have liked to have been able to stay with Eclipse but the new stuff just doesn't appeal to me the way my old 8454 did. For those of you running this deck how do you like it? Not having Mp3 capability kinda sucks but it IS a sq deck... I am probably going to set up a modded Xbox with a big *** hard drive to have plenty of music/games on hand. I just need to find a decent flip out stand alone monitor. The only thing I can find is cheap crap. Any ideas??

nice HU, this may seem obvious to some but, is that a copper chassis?

 

[Paul73 10+ year member]

Yessir it is indeed a copper chassis.....and dual 24bit 96 Khz sampling rate converters too //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif

I realy like everything I see in that thing. even the face. I like the face of it far better than my 9830 //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif

sweet headunit. not a fan of the face, but sweet none the less //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

My opinion..

The face is the best on any production HU out there..

Simple,

clean,

made of something other than cheap plastic,

high-end.

Nice deck man!

That is the only thing.. nothing BUT CD's.. However, I'm not seeing any better processing other than the H701 Alpine external processor.. or maybe the F1 which is far far more cash.

Don't know about the rest of your gear so I hope you'll have a system of amps, speakers and sounddeadenging that justifies such a great HU.

Good luck.

... I wish Clarion would trickle down the styling and old-school hi-fi technology in this head unit into something between this unit and it's others.. Theres such a HUGE gap in their players. It's the 9255, and all the other mass-production stuff.
