haha I hear u cthomp. But Im very...how should i say..very very perticular plus the fact I'm German and if anyone knows about Germans, we're VERY hardheaded. So it takes me ALOT of convinving on a certain thing for me to go on it. In this case the HU. Funny thing is after all the convincing is said and done I usually go w/ what i liked a little bit better in the 1st place regardless of what the majority consensus is. See where the hardheaded comes in

Guess I just like to hear other opinions to see what others like and have had success w/.
Plus this Alpine aint cheap...retailing at $450 this isnt exactly a "buy on a whim" purchase. I've shopped around though and can get it fr $329.
Anyway thanks for your opinions and more opinions are still welcome
