anybody used the CDA 9857? any opinions?

~snYper~ · Postby **~snYper~** » July 19th, 2006, 8:32 am

here is my review... ... it does not supersede the 9855!
To me the newer model of Alpine Head Units are kinda questionable in terms of the quality of the unit being built.... :roll:

more bling oriented... marketing i guess

I would guess that. They have to try to compete with Pioneer somehow.

I'm tempted to agree. I'm Pioneer by choice, but I succumbed to all the hype and I upgraded to an Alpine CDA-9856 recently and I was extremely disappointed. I know I might get licks for that comment. :oops:

After all the 'tweaking' it just didn't come close to my Pioneer.

I went back to my Pioneer DEH-P6700MP, which as far as I'm concerned sounds way better that the Alpine. I waiting for Rave to get his stock of Pioneer DEH-P7800MP units. :lol:

And, is the first deck I ever see that doesn't come with a remote. I kinda glad ah staying with the Pioneer cuz I would've had to give up my steering remote.

lots oh highe end manufacturers have gone the way of more bling due to get increase in sales
the same could be said for eclipse head units as well
the older units were much better but most found they were ugly now there is more bling but the quality just isnt there anymore as compared to units maybe 3-4years ago
alpine has also sucumbed to that scenario
however dollar for dollar when you comapre an alipine unit to a pioneer there is a difference in quality where by the alpine does have the edge
on the other hand pioneer has always had the winning formula where a good balance between "bling" features performance apeal with a lower cost
personally i prefer the higher end pioneer units than the lkow end ones due to the better sound quality such as the PRS880
its all up to the consumer really to decide
in the lower end market if you are looking at quality i would consider alpine
if you want bling and features
pioneer still wins hands down no matter what
and if you want high end stuff both alpine and pioneer make great head units
pioneer may have the advantage with decent built in 7 band and 13 band eq's however if you are going with external processing i would sacrifice the internal processing feature and get better quality head unit such as the higher end alpines

Are the 2005 line eclipse any good?
Like the CD5425,CD5435,CD8445,CD8455

I'm looking for a decent SQ deck and don't like the new alpines
The Eclipse sounds good though.

i think the cda-9835 was the last best deck to roll of alpine's engineers minds
