Default in dash..Alpine or Polk?

Ok so ive got a gift card to crutchfield..
ive got enough exterior work done to the body of my car so i was lookin for sound
with a $800 gift card what would you say is best to make my car stand out?
i was thinkin a standard in dash dvd player and a basic system..
but i was thinkin on the otherhand get 2 alpine type X or maybe polk and just call it a day..
what would you prefer??

To bad it's a gift card to crutchfield, and not like one of just those Visa gift card things. Crutchfield is so overpriced!

dito..... tho they do offer great customer service but you pay for it.

both are preaty good brands, but IMO i would chose the alpine.

i think my alpine double din dvd radio monitor was my best upgrade! i love that thing!!!!!!

true..well i mean its a sale as you go thing..the more phones you sell the more they give you..and its a website called giveanything.com..and its pathetic..then they have where you can buy at retails like cabella, olive garden, staples and sears..i actually got a bit to sears..but for my car there was really no option but crutchfield, and yes its expensive but im basically not paying for it, and i will get pretty good customer service and shipping is excellent.

i was actually hoping to get all that money on a staples gift card and go in and put all that on a prepaid visa at staples but they wouldnt allow it...

im in a bind between a dual in dash with bluetooth, or just a alpine in dash and 2 type X speakers..cant set my mind yet:-/ im going for a show look on the civic so im guessing the indash

i would vote indash.

BUT if ya buy the indash DONT FORGET a few key elements! MAJOR "screen proctor"!!!! prevent scratches on the screen right when you pull the radio out of its box brand new! and a minor is a video bypass.

my alpine is the most thing i miss about not driving my 99coupe!
