Alpine Dash Unit, Which one Options

[Redline08]

So everyone knows that alpine is pretty much the best in car dash units that one can buy. I recently sold my dvd player and xbox to pay for rims, now i am missing music lol. I have no more than 200 to spend on a new dash unit and i want to go with alpine. Its late and i dont really want to research for hours on which model in alpine's line is the best so can anyone point me in the right direction as to model and price?

If you owned and alpine and upgraded so something that you thought was better as far as sound goes, for less than 200 please let me know, im going for best sound here.

Thanks!!!

Alpine 'being the best' may be up for debate, but there is definitely an 'Alpine sound' that many people like.



If you require a new unit, then the advice given is good - go to Crutchfield or Alpine's website where you can view Alpine's lineup by price. A quick scan of the products should help you identify what you want. Up to about the $300 - $400 mark, I wouldn't worry much about the head unit. If it is Alpine you desire, then just get your Alpine in your price range.



If you are willing to go used, things get a little more complex to find, but you (in theory) can get a great used Alpine for that price. If you decide to go this route, there are many good units to find in the hunt: 7998, 9855, or even a classic 7800 or 7900 series unit (yum!).



If you'd care to deviate from Alpine, as I said - you won't find huge differences in new units for that price. If you would consider deviating from Alpine and going used, then you have many, many excellent units you can look for...Oh, look - there goes one now!
