I think i'm about to purchase a TV for my car. I just want to know which is better, the Pioneer or the Kenwood. If neither, then which ones do you guys suggest?

 

I have the pioneer avx7000, its pretty good because of the screen size and you can see clearly at different angles, but they have come out with the avx9300 which comes with indash dvd, I would suggest that headunit with the 9000 brain, awesome combo might upgrade to that pretty soon

 

i heard alpine 1005 is pretty good, but the 1006 came out.

 

AVX9300? Is there such a thing? Don't you mean the AVX-P7300DVD? That's the one with the DVD player built in, I use to have that one, but I sold it. But now I want a TV again. I don't really want such a high quality brain, a AVM8000 is good enough for me.

 

may be getting the alpine 1005, how that's for quality? heard good things, but i dunno. should it hold up well with the music, etc.

 

no offence but why would you put a TV in a TypeR

 

there you go, sorry for the mix-up thats the one I meant

 

Why not?

 

meh.... sounds kinna ghey to me.

I think it would be bad ***, not gay.

 

Kenwood KVT910DVD. It's touchscreen and you can add their new navigation system to it. The Kenwood really blows the Alpine away. You can even add full Dolby Digital 5.1 to your car too. Another cool thing is tat you manually fold the monitor down before it slides in. The motorized ones can get pretty annoying if the screen blocks the climate controls.

 

I agree without a doubt the Kenwood KVT910DVD is the best one out right now. It is a bit pricey, at $2399 retail, but it has more stuff than any of the other ones available. Not only is it the only touchscreen unit, it also has a built in TV tuner, which would cost almost $200 extra to add to any of the others. Not to mention the built in DVD player. Most people were putting in PS2s to get DVD in the car, but that was a real pain. The picture on it is exceptional as well, the only other one that comes close in that department is the Pioneer. The alpine is ok, but off axis it looks washed out and the contrast isnt that great. Personally I wouldnt put one in a Type R, but thats just because I like to hear the music coming from under the hood, and likely I will be going way too fast to pay attention to a TV screen. just my opinion.
