knowing me, i'd break the face off in a week! Clarion decks have a nice sound to them... and im sure that one has a ton of features... the dot-matrix display is nice, and I like the blue lighting. Just a little too much flash for my PERSONAL taste. Go for it if you like it and can get a good price... just know that if anything ever goes wrong with it, you'll have a hell of a time getting it replaced or fixed... clarion staff is a bunch of assholes.

it's purdy. Looks like I'd knock it off and probably break it pretty quick. I like it all contained in one face... just my thoughts. That and I prefer Sony HU's. Just the litttle things that get me.
