clarion touch screen:

or alpine
http://ecominet2.alpine-usa.com/pls/admn/item_info?p_item_name=IVA-C801&p_category=10&p_subcategory=50&p_main=10

im leaning towards the clarion because of the dvd capability, but i know alpine quality is excellent. which would you prefer?

clarion.

i know that alpine is known for being really good but Id rather have a touchscreen. Clarion isnt a bad stereo at all.

You can get an Alpine CVA 1003 and I can't remember the dvd player number, but total MSRP on those is like $2200...and since we're double din you can fit them both in. Less than the Clarion (also a POS) and much better quality.

Yeah I have the alpine Iva-c800 and the Alpine dva-5205. Couldnt be happier with the setup. Only other thing i might trade it for is the kenwood touch screen.
