Car audio questions...

does anyone know if any company makes a indash unit that is a touchscreen for radio and gps in the same unit

 

alpine i know has some. out of all the recievers I've had in the past, alpine had the cleanest sound as well as there amps and subs. be ready to spend some cash though, these type of units are the top end. browse crutchfield.com and then look elsewhere for prices.

 

do you want doulble din or single din pop out.....pioneer has some decent priced stuff but im not a fan of their nav systems. i have a kenwood that i love and they use garmin to build their nav sstems

 

Yes, Pioneer makes a good unit I saw at Best Buy, the Alpine unit is good too. Pretty common really, double DIN will probably look the best in dash.

 

pioneer is a sweet setup I uesd to have the AVIC-N1 unit or something like that everything is built in and now you can add a TON of crap! TV back up cam, ect ect...

 

I had the Pioneer AVIC 920 in my truck...but took it out when I rebuilt the dash. It was a nice setup...I got it for like $800 off eBay. I have never used Alpine, but I think you can get the 'same quality' sound out of many other manufacturers at significantly cheaper prices. I run Infinity Kappa Speakers and Amps in my truck with a cheap Clarion deck...sounds great. I have a 7.5" nav in a separate unit built in.

 

+1 I love my kenwood double den ;D

 

well if you never heard a higher end alpine system, you dont know the clarity your missing.. IMHO i've used alot of brands of recievers over the years. really you can just compare specs.. .THD is one to look at.

 

eclipse makes an awesome top o.fthe line unit.i have an avn7000 im selling.i loved it ,just time for an indash computer so away it goes.

 

yes eclipse is nice as well, I definitly put them up there with alpine.
