WAY too subjective of a question. Everyones opinions are gonna vary and there really isnt a 'correct' answer for it.

The Alpine should be out already. I think it's $500 @ Crutchfield. I was going to trade my 9833 in for it, but 2V preouts = teh suck.

IMHO, you're better off running an external DVD player and keeping the audio separate, unless you are going to get a higher end model.

I think he is referring to the 9860, that one came out on the 8th.

I wouldn't get too concerned about the 2 volt output. This paragraph came off www.bcae1.com

NOTE:A piece of equipment that has a higher maximum output voltage is not necessarily going to sound better than one which is only capable of 2 volts output. The higher output will allow you to reduce the gains on your amp (or any down line signal processor) which will lower the noise floor of your system. If you are not having trouble with noise (alternator, hiss...), you may not benefit from the extra output voltage. You also need to realize that the voltage may be more than your amplifiers can handle. The extra voltage will not damage the amplifier but if the lowest sensitivity (gain setting) on your amp is 2 volts, and you drive it with anything more than 2 volts, it will cause your amp to clip*.

That is why I would get the 9860.
