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.

Snadman-
I have the subs on. This is my problem... I have 2 amps...The subwoofers are powered by one...That part is figured out, they work great! The second amp that powers my door speakers (and soon to be rear speakers when I figure out the problem) only plays at half the output as they used to under my Excelon headunit. Apparently, there is a "Power IC" function that needs to be turned off (this cuts the internal amplifier and apparnetly boosts the external amplifier for optimum sound quality. But I don't know how to turn it off... --------------------  |
