The Alpine is letting me down by not doing that AND not directly controlling a CD changer. If they tweaked those two items, I'd so be down..

Dukk and AAAAAAA ive been informed that alpine is using basic transports. Pioneers p99/p01 is the only true audiophiles grade transport on the market-also the ODR line. I've been testing several transports ie two kenwoods, eclispe 5303, p01, denon z1, and alpine 505. Out of all of them they all had similar characteristic. But in the end te denonZ1 was by far the better unit

You'll have to forgive Julian. He's new to car audio. LOL.
I really like the iPod control on the Rockford. I wish the other companies would get with the times. My understanding is that the Alpine is using some very good quality DAC's. I like my 701, so if the 800 is an upgrade, I don't see any problems.
I will however wait to see the ARC Audio piece. I doubt it will have iPod control, but it may trump everyone on overal, performance.

Proper placement and equal pathlength is THE way to make a car stage and image properly. I lightly EQ my car 3 bands I've only touched and that's it. TA is 5ms and the rest is the enclosures, install methods and speakers.

What you are describing is how to maximize stereo playback in an environment that sucks for stereo playback. Make the best of a bad situation 
In any case, you do use processing, you need it, so I don't see why you are debating. Like girls saying they only slept with 2 guys and when you ask about the other guys you know she slept with, she says "yeah but they don't count".
