[QUOTE="BringDaBoom, post: 3522838, member: 581483"] Right off the bat the big thing I noticed between the first one and the the others was it was a 1-bit DAC, while ther other two have a 24 bit DAC. This is huge because the DAC is the "brain" of the unit. It' converts the files or music on an iPod, CD, USB into an audible sound. The better the DAC, the better its going to sound. Then the difference between the 2nd one and last one was mainly the color OEL display. Mostly, they have all have the same features, save for the DAC's and displays. Also, the Alpine listed three sets of 4V pre-outs. Didn't see preouts listed for the others. I'm sure they got them but they may just be 2V and not 4V. [/QUOTE]
