New thread on Alpine CDA-9887

[Tom.F.1]

I see this old thread keeps coming back to life.

Sorry, don't know much about the kenwood, my son-in-law has one and raves about it. I can't stand the look of the thing.

Anyway, I got my Alpine "Imprinted" and I'm here to rave about it.

I'm Impressed!!!!

Can you elaborate a bit more? I would love for someone who has actually heard all three following hu's and can comment on them:
1. Kenwood x991
2. Alpine 9887
3. Pioneer 880prs

What you get instead of bass or treble is actually superior to them. a seven band eq gives much better flexibility for tuning your sound although it's a little more complicated. I keep meaning to phone a&bsound and see if they do imprints yet since every single person who's had it done on this forum raves about it! cheers.

i doubt AB Sound will do imprinting...they don't even carry alpine anymore because Best Buy started carrying the brand...

IMO, if AB Sound can't compete w/ Best Buy's crappy prices, then AB Sound must be in serious trouble...AB Sound's marketing departmend needs to get themselves out of the 80's...i'm surprised they still don't have a decent website yet...

Yes, the imprint (multiEq) will work fine for 2 way or 3 way.
