If you are going to get a jvc, get the higher end lines, they have built in x-overs as far as I know and they are just as good if not better than pioneer, plus to me are more cosmetically appealing. Lower end JVC i'd avoid for decks..in that case. go pioneer for a lower end deck if thats what your aiming for. [img]tongue.gif[/img]

 

Ray from FX Audio has repeatedly tested the pioneer deh-p6500 and deh-p7500 against other decks. and consistently for some reason the pioneers are .3db louder in a street setup [img]graemlins/dunno.gif[/img] . he's also tested them against alpines, which he said when you put on an o-scope, the alpine will have a cleaner and stronger output, but the pioneer's are still louder.....no one knows why....also tested against clarion's aswell [img]smile.gif[/img]
