[QUOTE="rjay, post: 7910484, member: 625965"] I was thinking about updating my wife's HU. Was looking at the Kenwood Excelon KDC-496 or Alpine CDE-134HD. I was thinking about the Kenwood, but was wondering about the quality. Are they about equal, or is one really better than the other? The Kenwood does have more RCA outputs (which are 4v instead of 2v like Alpine), but I will only be using one. Both units have high/low pass filters with 3 band eq. The Kenwood includes a wireless remote, where as the Alpine I would have to pay extra for it. Alpine does have HD radio built in but I'm not sure if that is really worth having or more just a gimmick! These are just a few main features, and I'm thinking the Kenwood would be the better buy. What do you guys think? [/QUOTE]
