Alpine IDA x-001 OR Pioneer DEH-8300SD?

[john182rs]

Which out of the two units would you class as better?

I currently own a x001 plus another that i can not remember the name of.
But im looking to swap to the 8300SD as this alpine does not have hi and low pass filters.

What would you say is the ups and downs between them?

Have an old DEH7000 somethign or other, works with the iPod well, pretty intuitive, and has LOADS of sound options, hi pass low pass, 7 band eq etc. etc. etc. etc.

Only problem is it has blue illumination whichmatches no car I've ever owned ever.

Alpine and kenwood do amber coloured ones these days iirc.

Either way, you cant go wrong with branded, I've had good experiences with both brands, just get the one thta meets you spec/budget

i'd sell what ever you have and get a cda-9815 old skool
