what makes the Excelon series better than the EZ-500 i posted?

i read the reviews of the one you linked and a few said that they found the features were very complicated to use...

i really don't need lots of extra features.. i just want a good sounding, dependable radio, that's simple to use...

 

The excelon series is of a much better build quailty. The last longer and are overall worth the extra money. Its hrad to go off of other peoples reviews. I say find a local stereo place and go look for yourself.

 

FWIW In all my other cars Ive owned Ive always used upper line Pioneer decks. Never had any problems with any of them and theyve always out-performed my expectations. The only reason I didnt get another one is because I was looking for a deal and couldnt catch a used Pioneer for a bargain. I'm no expert by any means at all but I know what I like.

 

well i just noticed the EZ-500 isnt even in stock and is no longer available.. so i guess that rules that one out.. i may go with the KDC-X589..

 

Alpine CDA-9847 is a very nice head unit for the price. Just stay away from the glide touch Alpine's. They break more than most.

 

already ordered it, i got the Kenwood Excelon KDC-X689.. i hope i'm happy with it, spent enough

 

Good call
