Hi all ICE sifu,

Wonder to know how many of you hear about or currently using this HU.
Some people say SONY HU not really good and more suitable for entry. blink.gif

I went to one of the CAR ICE shop in Puchong. The installer claim that this sony hi-end HU can win down all Alpine HU include 9887 and the price is very reasonable. He claim that Sony purposely bring this hi-end unit for testing market and only distribute 2 units per outlet.

I have google it, well receive some feedback and most of them give very high point. unsure.gif

Hope to receive more feedback on this unit from our sifu here. smile.gif

For best result , go and test out the both the HU youself or better still with a couple of well versed ICE buddies . Then only can see real result . Try going to shops that have lots of samples try out (play with ) before proceeding to places which sell the products cheaper. For me ,it's AutoBacs , S'pore for try out then to Sim Lim Tower for purchasings. smile_tongue.gif
PATIENCE !!! PATIENCE !!! PATIENCE !!! IT'LL GET YOU THE BEST WHEN TIME IS RIGHT AND SO WILL BE THE PRICE

Agreed with you, need to listen wiht our ear first. smile_thumbup.gif

Hi all,

Bro Zenn mean 6 x 4V preout = 3 pair of RCA out at 4V
1p > front
