[QUOTE="desertheat, post: 3446220, member: 557169"] Over time pio has left a bitter taste in a lot of peoples mouths from shoddy quality, decks that have noise issues or fail far before they should. Now every manufacturer has has these issues with certain model numbers of decks, but Pioneer seems to have more of these crappy issues even with more current headunits. That is why I personally will never use a pioneer again. On a side note back in like 1996 I sold my dad a pioneer cd player for his camp trainler, little bugger is still in there and in mint condition playing away! hahaha. Also while most people grew up in the car audio world, they were seperated by brands that were available to them and there buddies had and loved. So in your early years you were already being seperated into a brand you liked. I started out with an old alpine knobby deck and loved it! The in the mid 90's kenwood excelon ruled the world with there mask faceplates and I found heaven. Great deck until they also died in short time from there ribbon cable issue. I then tried eclipse and found the most hated deck of my life. I came back to eclipse 7 years later with the cd7000 and LOVED IT. But overall the best decks I have owned ever were ALL alpine units. From both versions of the 7909 "overrated" the 7949 which is a legend and one of my alltime favs. 9835 which is a legend and my current single din fav, 9815, and now the best unit I have ever run the d310 with h701 processor. Most amazing combo I have ever used by far. [/QUOTE]
