i'm just wondering where Clarion stands in the world of car audio?

i've seen pimp my rid on MTV and the shop there, West Coast Customs, uses Clarion a lot. seeing how this shop is probably one of the best out there i was wondering if Clarion is about the same or what?

What the hell did you just say??? Best shops out there??? Can I have some of what you are smoking???
Come one dude, you should know better.
Clarion is a good line of equiptment, well except there amps. But they are not known for there extra's, looks, or any other frills. I love there video equiptment.

I'll pass on that showcase Bob, what's behind door #2? It's .....Audiobahn, given to WCC at no charge as long as it is used in a televised show....... It's all about advertising and you my friend fell for it hands over foot. See how powerful a paid advertisement really is.

Oh no, thank you sir.  Ive only dealt with Clarion headunits, found them to be reliable and functional, but not very flashy.

Clarion are pretty decent units.  Had one for years and it still works.

I had a clarion vrx925vd and hated it, damn thing broke every few months after warranty and it cost me $125 plus shipping to fix. Not happy with clarion at all.  And WCC being the best shop out there?  Any shop that has to vinyl on flames and graphics is pretty much crap to me.

well i'm glad that everyone likes to shoot down what i say, it just makes my day  thought on Clarion -- posted image.

anyways, i'm glad i posted this, cause it showed me too things, how tv can make you think one thing when it's not true (i.e WCC) and that many people actually like to make fun of things said than actually answer a question. haha, i'm just givin you all a hard time.

would it be safe to say that since WCC has huge Clarion banners hanging in their shop and stuff that it's just a publicity type thing for Clarion, plus i'm sure that WCC gets things for free or practically free?
