Is it as good as my Klipsch home theater? Not even close, but for an open roadster I am happy with it. I was never a fan of Alpines but the Kenwood I like. Really depends on what your objectives are. For pure sonic fidelity perhaps the Kenwood. If you want to mess around with tweaking and hoping for better Android apps, Parrot.
Thanks that helps. I need to spend more time looking at the units. Sonic quality is important on the other hand a car esp. a roadster is a hugely compromised space. Almost as important as sonic quality is not having a dancing, flashing display. Personally I think a busy screen takes away from the atmosphere of the car. I do not believe that any of these units have this "problem"
I have actually been distracted and am working on braking upgrade. Now I just need to get the vendor to respond so I can actually purchase the rotors I want. Who knew it could be so difficult to spend money with someone.
