hey i want to purchase a nice dvd flip up head unit but i dont know what to buy? pioneer panasonic sony eclipse kenwood clarion jvc?? what should i be buying whats the best not just out of thos but all of them what should i be looking into??

thanks Peter

Are you after Nav or no nav?

umm could care less about nav i dont know what double or single dim is i just want something that looks good playing movies and music

Larger or smaller for the screen size. As in 6.5" for the Pioneer or 7" for the Eclipse? Personal preference, I'll take the Eclipse for tonal response, ease of use, 3 year no charge warranty + 1 year free replacement if stolen (in the first year) and it has a great picture.

any make ad any size above 6 inches is what im looking 4 u say the eclipse should do well?

our store has the kenwood KVT-617DVD on display right now...picture is awesome, and very easy to use.

we also have the JVC AVX-2, screen is smaller, 3.5 in wide screen, but with this you don't have any motorized parts that you have to worry about. It has face plate tilt....and super clean crisp picture, I've accually thought about buying myself one of them.

take a look at those 2 unit, you might like them

I'm using alpines double din IVA-W200. I haven't had a ton of experience with various screens, other than when i was looking around for this one and playing. All in all, i'm super happy with this screen. I love the pulse touch and am happy with all the expandibility possible, along with all the features you have within the deck.

I would run from the Panasonic and JVC models...........

^ agreed.

I like the Alpine IVA-D900 the screen is 1.15 million megapixels.

Sick, deck...awesome picture, sounds great and works with the H701.

Hopefully your wallet is heavy, otherwise, maybe look at the Alpine IVA-D310, also works with the H701, and again, looks mint, nice picture and sounds nice too.

The rest of the install pics.

my friend has an Alpine iva-d310 and i have to say I would buy one in a heart beat...if it played dvd-a (full surround, not that 2ch. mixdown b.s). It's a nice unit with tons of features and great performance. The pulse touch is really cool and it looks great. As soon as Alpine brings out a dvd player/screen that plays dvd-a under 1000.00, I'm there!
