Well I wouldnt pick either. Theres better out there for the same money. personally I have to have a knob for volume the JVC doesnt look like it has. The Clarion doesnt have much EQ. I dont know what your looking at spending on them but from what the are showing for msrp theres better out there. I dont know what you need but do some searching on here. Anyway if I had to chose I would go with the jvc , even if it doesnt have a knob. It does have more eq so it would work better for me

well some more info on your setup and what you want the headunit to do would be helpful. i've always liked clarion so i'd go with that but it's hard to pick not knowing what you want

I don't have anything right now. I have a convertible and I'd be a complete idiot to put a system in it. When I get the Land Rover/Navigator I am going to change out all of the speakers and probably put in a set of 12"s or 15"s with an amp to support it. I will probably use the internal amp with the regular speakers for a while until I can find a deal on a decent amp to power those

Also I like the touch screen idea, and this way I don't have to have a flip out or a double din screen, which is a thief magnet

OK so I'm going to go ahead and get an indash. I've narrowed it down to 3 that will fit my price range. Which one would you recommend? I want to be able to bypass the E brake ground so that is an important "feature" to me.

please note that I will be getting one through ebay so don't use the crutchfield prices for anything.

JVC sucks i had one for a year then the internal amp went out in it. Plus is sounds like crap.
