YA they can be. I remember my RSX I put in a Pioneer and got lucky to find a guy on Craigslist selling it for less then half the price, brand new. Forgot why the guy was selling it.

But even this Kenwood deck, top of o the line, MSRP is like $1800 and I paid about $1050. cheaper on eBay plus using Microsoft's Bing cash back getting 8% refund. Too bad they are turning the cash back off at the end of this month. I my buy and return one from a authorized dealer and then use the purchase receipt to get $150 rebate Kenwood is offering.

What I don't get is just why these systems are so slow. not just Kenwood but even Pioneer I think is slow too. I was some videos on the Alpines and they seem pretty fast. I dont know if they just need more memory or a faster processor or what. But for the price they should be using a lot better hardware.
