The owner still recommends Alpine over Kenwood and Pioneer. As of this weekend, he is back to carrying Clarion *just one deck* and he states the quality is about as par to Kenwoods which is saying a lot compared to his opinion on the whole Kenwood Excelon series which he was stating they have been having a lot of doa units. Ofcourse Alpine, Kenwood and Pioneer have low to high end and it all depends on what each person wants.
I would shop around for an audio store besides Lombard's - IMO they are the highest price store on the planet. They seem to know what they are doing, but compare their prices with somewhere else. At least that's the case with their store in Santa Maria.
