but would really like to try the cd7000
if the sound quality can match with
the cd8061.

MinTze-san,

Frankly, the 1st batch of 9855, the glide touch, I have quite a tough time getting used to it.
Funny, lately I try again, damn, its quite ez actually!  ;D Maybe its just me.

I never tried Eclipse nor Pioneer before. Alpine was my 1st HU, my 2nd HU still an Alpine, till todate.

the glide touch is easy once u get used to it, but for me its very annoying sometimes, and not really safe while driving...

Clarion HX-D2. If budget's tight I would also recommend the Blaupunkt Bremen MP74. 17 channels of EQ to play with.
