Out of that list, Clarion. Only the ProAudio, the low end is crap. Alpine's got some great decks too :thumbup:

Sound quality more has to do with how you have the EQ set up and what speakers you have. Who has the best design is a user preference. Company reputation? Rep for what?

From the list above...
Alpine
Clarion Pro-Audio
Kenwood is good, too.

Outside of the list, Nakamichi, Eclipse (eh... sometimes problematic) & some old Denon decks.

Clarion HX-D1 -- not the D10
Alpine 7909 -- (with a few choice mods)
Clarion 9255 -- (same as a mcintosh mx6 blah blah...something)
Denon DCt-Z1 <---- my choice as the best cd transport/DAC in one chassis combo around right now...
