Default Which Alpine?

Can someone please give me some advice. I've recently fitted infinity 6000cs in my front doors which made a big improvement but still a bit thin sounding. I want to buy a decent headunit and get rid of that c**p OEM HU. I either want the Alpine CDA 9855R or the Alpine CDA 9812RB. I know the CDA9855R has a better screen but i'm after quality and volume. Any suggestions? Also Dynamat? I know you have to put it all around the speaker and on the door card but do you need to put any behind the speaker (basically on the inner part of the outer door skin if that makes sense) Any help would be great. Thanks

Paul

I have a 9835R Which although run through amps only is awesome. So my advice is to go for the latest version which I belive is the 9855R

Hope that helps

Thats the one I want but apparently the glide touch is really awkward to use. Is yours glide touch?

Normally I would say take the 55. It´s got higher Voltage on the Pre-Outs, BUT the GlideTouch is so annoing! You make the SetUp (taking many hours) and because of the GlideTouch it all wents away *grr*...
But the 12 has not all the features, so look for the 13!
