which alpine is better, never had one Options

[Terzin1]

Currently, i have an AIWA head unit which i would never recommend to anyone (it has this really annoying christmas light theme and eats disks) and now I want to step up to the next level with an Alpine. Im thinking cheaper so how bout the ALPINE CDA-9845 CD MP3 WMA INDASH CD PLAYER or the ALPINE CDA-9847 CD MP3 WMA INDASH CD PLAYER . does anyone know if there is much of a difference between the sound quality of the to. Also, my celi is vertible and i know the sound quality is going to be alot worse than my hatch was so is there a better choice, I dunno. Unless someone complains about theres, Im leaning more towards the 9847 cause it has 50W x 4 instead of 45W x 4.

Wow...I was just looking at those two HU's as well...However, I ended up going for the CDA-9853. But here's a problem I have discovered since installing it last night...

I have Infinity components in my doors wired to an Eclipse 4 channel amplifier. I have Infinity speakers in the rear that are wired to the HU. I have 2 12" Infinity Kappas powered by an Xtant amplifier.

Now, when I wired the HU in, my rear speakers and subs sound great....However the door speakers don't play hardly at all. I'm tinkered around with the settings on my HU, but couldn't get anything to work on the front speakers. I made sure the RCA cables were correctly put in, and checked to make sure the amplifier had power as well. Both were fine....but still no sound out of the speakers.

After searching in my manual, I guess I need to turn off the "Power IC" mode? Except I have NO IDEA where that function is! I also have on the deck, a X-over in which I can adjust to either "F/R/SW" or "3-Way"

In theory, wouldn't I want that set to the "F/R/SW" setting? Thats where it is currently set at right now, and I'd go out and swtich it to the "3-Way" but I don't really have all that much time to take out the HU and play with it right now.

Can anybody help me out?
