Hey everyone, this is a picture of my Alpine CDA-9807. the stock am/fm/casstee w/ 5band eq. radio didn't work when I had bought the car, and Richie (who drove the car up from Florida) said he couldn't make the trip with no radio, so I picked one out at Circuit City

This has everything I wanted, MP3, XM-ready (perfer Sirrius though) 3 pre-outs remote, no fold down (hate them) and a real nice silver/bule finish. It was alot more then I wanted to spend, but I figured if I am going to buy a new hu, min as well get one I really want, and the built in eq and sound enhancments etc... really help too. .... it came to $370 after some extra things we had to get :eek:

AFA the rest of the system goes, it's all stock, I want to get my car paid off first, then I will do things with the system, I actually really like the stock system, only thing is the bass is weak at higher volumes.

Speakers are:

dash- 4x6"
front door- 5 1/4" (6 1/2" can fit too)
rear deck- 6x9"

When I start getting a system, I don't know if I want to get subs and an amp first or start replacing speakers.... I try not to think about it, becuase that is still a way off.

The deck was bought at CC @ $300.... I had found it at etronics.com new for $230, but Richie was leaving soon and said he wasn't able to wait for the shipping, add in the harness he had to get , instalation kit and $20 Florida tax, and it came to $370.

That IS $370 I could put towards paying off my car, but oh well, I am glad that I have this HU and not the factory am/fm/cass though, becuase when I am bored, I just go in my car, I made an MP3 cd and keep it in there and just play music, if I am feeling tired, I recline the seat and fall asleep etc...

....the power antenna gave me trouble today, and I think I may have damaged it, it was getting dark and wouldn't go down all the way, I'll have to look at it tomorrow durring the day and see what's up with that.....it is great having a car that every single thing is power, but they can be a real pain when things stop working.....
