i have the same HU except not the premier line. I think it's a great unit. Pioneers are known to have bad RCAs, but so far i haven't had any trouble with mine

Yeah got the same also. I have had the deh-p780mp for about 2 years now. Great unit, still works as good as the day I bought it. Havent had any trouble with the RCAs but heard also of the issues. I am very pleased with it so far holds up great in the winter been through some cold days hear in chicago started up everytime. You can look at the premier deh-p880prs. This thing is pretty awsome and has alot of features to it. But the alpine you already have is one of the top choices for me.

i have a 590 premier line and its a nice deck it dosnt have all the features you like but its still nice and simple to use.

I did have to send it in for repairs because the volume nob fell off lol, and the IR sensor died so i couldn't use my remote and the ipod interface got screwed up or something idk, it deleted a play-list once off my ipod. The repair only cost me shipping since it was a premier and has a 2 year warranty.

other than those issues i do have a hiss when its paused, not sure if thats rca whine though or what.

All in all since your getting 2 models higher i would imagine it would be rock solid as ive had mine for 2 years and those are my only problems.

I actually was looking to upgrade to the same deck you are looking at but i wish it had a usb on the front.

I have a 780 too. Bought one from Brad W. about 2 years ago. Out of all the different HU's I've seen and played with, the 780 is by far the most user friendly and best looking HU ever imo and has tons of features. Never had a problem with it either.

had a 780mp in my xterra for 2 years...loved it. never had a problem with the screen. did have the RCA issue but its a very easy fix. however, if you install it correctly, it shouldnt happen.

great deck for sure
