I am leaning on going this route. Please give your opinions.

Alpine DVA-9965
Alpine PXA-C701 (would this be ok even if the unit can control the H701)
Alpine PXA-H701
I have a double din area to fill and this is why I was wainting to use the Controler.

I will not be setting up the suv for Video so would it be worth it to go with the Alpine Center Channel instead of the Alpine seperate controler for the H701. The Center would be set high up on the dash.

Polk SR5250 or Focal K2P's (Front)
Polk or Focal 5 1/4 (Back)
Amp (One of these) Mcintosh MCC404M, Focal 4ch or PDX 4.150

2 Morel Ultimo 10" or 12" for Sub
Not sure yet of sub amp kind of depends on Main Amp.

Thanks!

    Id get the remote for the 701 even tho the HU can control it cause the HU is a little cumbersome. With the remote you can fly thru all the menus and its a lot easier to tune while you listen. When I tune I can sit back in my seat with the remote in my hands and tune with my eyes closed so I can hear exactly what changes are being made. With the HU you have to sit up and mess with it for every time you want to change something.

    Macleod, With the remote can you mount it under my radio to fill in the double din spot or does mods have to be done?
