Default Which One Should I get????

Clarion NX602



Clarion NX702



Kenwood DNX6190HD



JVC KWNT30HD




I'm looking to upgrade my head unit in my truck and I'm having a hard time deciding which unit to get. I've narrowed my search down to these 4 units. If anyone has experience with either of these, please reply with your thoughts on the unit. I'm leaning towards the Clarion NX602 but have read a bunch of mixed reviews about it. Let me know what you guys think.

Thanks

Kenwood then JVC, Clarion I have lost faith in. I also worked for the Canadian JVC distributor and there product was bullet proof... I also owned a Kenwood DNX7100... a little sidenote is that JVC/Kenwood actually mutually produce headunits and share technology. If it was based on looks/gui I would go with Kenwood.

I'd go with the Kenwood, I've owned just about every brand and Kenwoods always sound better. JVCs are getting better too, now that there owned by Kenwood.

As a side note Kenwood usually releases the new models in January, so it might be worth it to wait and get a 2013 model or a better price on a 2012 model.
CES is in a month, so there will be more choices out there.

You might want to go to Crutchfield.com and send them a message. You provide your vehicle type and what features you want in your head unit. They will reply back with their recommendation. They will also provide a complete buid list with instructions and parts should you purchase from them.

I went with the Kenwood and am extremely happy with the purchase. Got that and infinity kappa 6x8 components in the front door and infinity kappa 6x8 2 - ways in the rear. Sounds great.
