Default New Headunit, Alpine IWA 203 or Pioneer 4200?

Hi guys,

I am building a new setup for my 350z roadster.
Which HU should I get, Alpine IWA 203 or Pioneer 4200? They are both same pretty much the same price and almost the same feature, but the Pioneer got DIVX playback. What do you recommend me?
My system will be.
10" type R sub with Alpine PDX 600.1
6.5 type r component in the front
6.5 type r in the back
powered by an alpine pdx 150.4

Thanks!

If you already went with all alpine, why not just go with the alpine head unit? I personally go with the alpine head unit.

Yeah all Alpine sounds cool.
But the new pioneer looks great too. I guess I will have to see them both myself.
Alpine doesn't have Divx playback right?

Dont think the Alpine does. Even though I have had lotta alpine HUs, I like the Pioneer and its features.
