I would recommend the Eclipse CD4000. It's got 3 x 5volt outputs, an aux input, and it'll flat out perform better than either of the above HU's.

Edit:
Oh, yeah, and it's got that nifty Area Shot feature. Check it out on the Crutchfield webpage.

Try the Pioneer 6800MP has a ton of features and also is iPod compatible and also compatible with AAC files, CD, CD-R, and CD-RW compatible, including discs loaded with MP3 & WMA's.

They told me what ever is a compairable to my old Alpine 7995
..... So If i cant get one i will sell what ever one i get. I like my Alpine 9835..
But if i can get a better one I will use it and sell the 9835,..

The new PIONEER is pretty amazing. I would not just sell yourself short on not even thinking about that one.

Pioneer got rid of their 7 series and made this new 680 have all the features your lil heart could ever imagine.

lol :)

No they are replacing it with a new one of my choice but it has to be in the same class EX :

Under 350.. or in the class of the CDA-9857...

Problem is the replacemrnt for mine is a Alpine CDA-9857 but i wont take it because it dont have 4Volt out

So i Was told to look for a deck on the same class... and if i dont like it i will sell it and keep my 9835 that i got..

And get new comps...

The day it was damaged by theft (7995) i went and got a 9835 display unit thinking my company would just give me a check...

if I like the new unit I will return the 9835 or sell it.. and get Comps....

I suggest you need to go shopping and specify whatever you like from what's available locally.
