Ok, so the proffesional dude in the audio store told me today that the Kenwood (X589) HU I was looking at was a pretty good HU but he said that an Alpine is a step above... (Money is TIGHT). He said that the "bass engine" of Alpine would boost the bass a ton... My question is Head to Head which is better for my listening habits (metal/rap)
Alpine CDA-9851
- 3, 2 volt preouts (was hoping for more
- Bass engine
- 18wrms X 4
Kenwood X589
- 3, 4 volt preouts
- 22wrms X 4
- 3 EQ bands (compared to none on the Alpine)
I want HARD hitting bass and nice clean crisp mids and highs... Which is an overall better HU? |

Alpine, no questions about it. |

As far as tuning get the Alpine. If you really want hard crisp hitting mids and highs get a amp. Cause 4watt rms is not going to be a big difference but noticable. 18rms-22rms is not as much going and doing 40-50 rms. |
