I would like some opinions on what brands have the "BEST" SQ of Double DIN units. Price is really not an issue, and I have been eyeing the Eclipse AVN6600 or the Alpine IVA-w200 with their Processor Unit. I dont neccessarily need NAV just clean, clear SQ.

Thanks

When some one says clean, I instantly say eclipse. I have never been a fan of Alpine sound either so Ill be honest and say Im bias.

i like the eclipse unit over the alpine., but i have have put together some realy nice 5.1 set up with the Clarion MAX675VD, and the 5.1-Channel Processor as well.

I'm not an audiophile, but I just got the Alpine IVA-W200 and it sounds wonderful to me... However, I have not tried the Eclipse models at all, so I can't make a comparison.

I've always been an Alpine fan myself. The IVA-W200 is a very cool headunit.

This one is really cool, those other ones don't hold a candle imo.

Can't beat a vacuum tube head unit
