I'm getting a new Alpine deck, and was wondering which model any of you would recommend for under $350 (preferably 300-350 shipped). I was thinking about CDA-7893 , but havn't decided yet.

------------------
Omega9

97 black Camaro coupe 3.8v6 (loaded)
NX Nitrous system(75hp shot)
Bridgestone Potenza 235 55 r16 tires
K&N
GTS carbon fiber blackouts (rear)
GTS smoke blackouts (front)
red neon license plate border
20 limo tint
System: 10" Kicker L7 Solo Baric, Alpine CDA-D855,(waiting for amp)
hot chicks with big ***** option

Dad's Ride
91 white convertable Corvette 6 speed
3 way adjustable suspension

 

How about the 7894? Does the 7893 play MP3's?

 

The 7894 is 400 bucks but it does play mp3, the 7893 is 350. I have the 7893, I like it better because it's silver and blue and I didn'y have a need for mp3.

You can get the 7894 for under $350 many places online shipped, http://www.ikesound.com/1024.htm has it for $342 with no tax and free shipping, just a thought, either the 7893 or 7894 are very nice...

 

I just installed the 7893, and I absolutely love it. I like the silver and blue face better than the face on the 7894. You can always buy the Alpine CHA-S634, a 6 disc CD changer that reads MP3's. From what I understand, that will give you MP3 playback capability on your deck. That would be pretty sweet having over 600 songs in your changer :P

 

Buy it online and most of them will be below 350 other than the screens. Retail they usualy double
