    Go with Kenwood or Alpine. They have reliable sound quality, physical controls, and good support.

    Would you say the Alpine audio is dramatically better than the Joying head unit? What about an Alpine 970 vs the equivalent Kenwood?

    All I can say quality wise is it was well worth the money, and Halo 11 is expensive. Quality is off the charts, abilities , audio wise are amazing, and with behind the dash controller I get all my steering wheel controls plus I can play movies while the truck is running, wife can watch moves while I am driving.

    The other neat thing is I have a front facing trail camera and a rear camera on my bumpers, sure does come in handy offroading solo.
