Alpine CDA-9835
 

Anyone have the 9835? I found a really good deal on it from an authorized dealer. I'm wondering if anyone has this or the 9815 or the 9833. I just sold my Pioneer, so I'm wondering what some people with experience with these units thinks. If no one replies, I'll probably be going for the 9835. Thanks :bigthumb:

Or... the Pioneer 860MP. I've read good things about it and it's definitely a good looking HU.

the new alpine line up is very nice-the 9835 only adds the different display over the 9833 for a $100 difference- your best buy is the 9831 if you plan on adding external amps, only problem is the face plate is a dark silver color and not black like the 33/35. Also the range of display colors is amazing!

Sweet, thanks a lot. My current plans don't include any external amps besides one for 2 12' subs. Later on I plan on upgrading, but for now, I'd like a good amp on the HU. I found the 9835 for 385. I found the 9833 for 345, so for 40 bucks I think I'm going to go for it. I mean I'm already putting out well over 300 dollars, why not spend a little bit more and get the best one, ya know?

*This* is Alpine's best:

And I don't know about spending, "a little bit more". More like, "breaking the bank". :D

The CDA-9835 is nice. I have Alpine's CDA-7897 in another car and wanted to pick up another one of their source units, however, the CDA-9835s were not in stock anywhere and wouldn't be available for a few more months and I didn't want to wait, so I ended up going Nakamichi. Post pics and gives us a review when/if you pick this up. :)

Yeah... I wish I could afford Alpine's best. What I meant by best, was simply the best of the ones I was looking at... sorry for not phrasing it correctly :). But when I do get mine, I'll be sure to take some pics and write up some info on it :bigthumb:. And yes, if I went for the 7990, that would definitely be breaking the bank... but for $40, that's not too bad, I mean, I save that up in my spare change in a few months. I'm just saying, that when I spend a couple hundred dollars, I'd rather put out a another $50 and get the best HU for my price range. I only intended on spending $200-300 tops when I began to look, and now I'm up to $400. It's hard for me to spend $300 when for a little more I can get something much nicer. I guess I have a problem :wave:

Thats a great price there- have fun with everything.
