C'mon guys. After a lot of reluctance has E_L got this far, give him a bit more time and we'll see the top end gear coming in.

Guys, actually that sub is not bad at all, just like the Esteem & the guy that drives it. Just get to know that Sub & you will see what I mean.

Technocrat · 19th May 2009, 17:51

Wow another clarion 785 guy, Congrats

EL even I have the same sub & I too am very happy with it heck I even have a Sony amp. So long as you like it, it doesnt matter

How much is this Alpine F600 amp for in grey and with B&W?
Anyone here has a clue ?

s0uljah · 19th May 2009, 21:18

Hey thats funky mix right there!

Upgrading in stages is always better

Enjoy!

frankmehta · 19th May 2009, 21:24

niiiiiiiiice! happy to see a good selection of components. without criticising any component (no need, all are great!) i would like to congratulate you! i am quite sure adding the Clarion made a HUGE difference. It's the rage now! Enjoy the music!

DocG · 19th May 2009, 22:10

I must say that the Clarion HU and the Alpine amp are great, have heard very nice things said about them, especially internationally.

All other components, well will keep my eye on this thread and watch the upgrades as they come in

Techno, at 7.5K, it is a steal. There is nothing compared to this HU at less than 15k over here. Specially the features that come with it. So, it made a lot of sense to buy this one.

Yeah, it is, I never realised that until I started typing the title of this thread.

@frank... thanks, I've been eyeing this clarion for a loooong time, but it was your posts & others' experiences with it that made up my mind.
