Anybody else want to get ?

 

I still see none getting owned. He asked for someone to post a comparible, it wasnt a debate. Aside from that Id take the 880 in a hearbeat over the 9815 and would be *maybe* debateable with the 7995. A 7998 - maybe you have something to talk about.

Either way the DRZ is a superior unit to both of your Alpines.

And lets not get started on the highly claimed 4V preouts from Alpine...

 

Thanks alot for all the input. I went to a car audio place today and looked at all the headunits. I think im pretty set on buying an alpine now, they looked like they were the best quality. im gonna either get the cda-9883 or cda-9885

 

LoLzzzzzzzzz!!!! Why not?

 

Because your feelings would get hurt as a believer..

 

Between the two id go with. ALPINE CDA-9885
Much better HU. It's on sale at Crutchfield.

"CDA-7995 - maybe you have something to talk about".


Well then let's talk about it fool.
ALPINE CDA-9815 has the same **** as CDA-7995 minus Stealth Faceplate and BioLite.
BFD!!!


So put down the crack pipe please. Thanks!!!

 

WTFE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Alpine 1534.09%
Pioneer 1431.82%

 

If your going to quote at least make an attempt to do it right.

A lil more clear for you now?

 

Unfortunately my friend you've been taken for a ride by all the glamorous hype and publicity Alpine spends to make believers. Its not the product you love, its the name. Eventually you'll realize this and thank me later.

 

 

Guess maybe I need to make it even Bigger and Bolder...

 

Maybe now your level of literacy will allow you to see what I posted.

 

When i'm old, gray, deff and don't give a ****. Sure i will.

 

I'm the same only difference is that I see through hype and BS. Unfortunately you do not. Apparently your the Alpine fanboy/poster child round here?

 

hey 6spdcoupe, what do you think about Alpines new PDX line of amps?? I have read some decent things about them and was just curious to what you thought of them? I would be much more willing to run one of those PDX amps than I would be one of their headunits. Not saying there is anything wrong with their HU's, just I prefer Pioneer myself.

thanks,
Paul

 

 

Concept is good, product is fair, much better can be had for similiar or the same money. I was an Alpine fan for many years and stocked them regularly. Unfortunately like alot of larger well known companies a time comes when they decide to cut back costs and ride the wave of a name. Alpine isnt the first one to do this and surely wont be the last.

I'm guessing by the questioning that your possibly looking for a small footprint? Perhaps look at Audisons or Genesis Profiles?
