i have a 12 inch alpine type r running off a mrp500 and i am about to get 6x9 infinity references for the back and a 6x8 component for the front. Should i get an alpine cda105 abd a $100 equalizer or just an alpine ida x305. Or just a jvc s100. What would work best wih that setup. Btw i have no amp for the speakers
 
I would stay away from JVC their head units have never impressed me. Poor sound quality, overrated voltage, don't last long either. Alpine is an excellent head unit to go with, along with clairon, and eclipse. I prefer clairon out the 3. Been using their head units for 10 years and have never had a problem with any of them.
 
Alpines are good, I have the alpine ida-x305 myself,
but you'd have to get the IMPRINT unit and the calibration kit, to get the best sound from it.

Pioneers produce excellent headunits also, on their higher-end unit the preamps are usually 5volts, which usually means a better sound.
