One of the reasons folks thought of DSPs is because Yoop mentioned line voltage and slope adjustments as his concerns.
Is slope adjustment very common in head units? I still have a truck with a cassette deck in it so I haven't had the cash or desire to swap them out very much.

Not everyone here knows who is personal friends with who, so to me it appeared just another smartass post that i see so frequently from Frenchie. since Mr. F has not responded to my PM, I don't know anything else, so sorry.
I did make a HU offering at the start,without mention of a dsp. so I hope that keeps me out of the crap.

Hey Bates I just looked up that Alpine you listed and they have an improved model that allows custom tuning from your phone like a DSP:
Alpine CDE-HD149BT
It took me a second to realize there was only one character different in the model number. They look the same and even seem to cost the same but that tuning app might be a futureproof feature.

Looking at a HU and appreciate the Alpine info. Question...Is there a way to use the stock hand controls with this HU, and if so what is needed as an interface etc?

Thanks for the reply! Just ordered the components below. Thanks to all for this post! On my way to a good setup I believe (next step will be replacing the hogtunes)
- Alpine CDE-HD149BT based on recommendations on this thread $228 on Amazon
- Metra 99-9613 - 1998-2013 HD Stereo Install Kit w/Handlebar Control (found another thread since my op and this response) $84.95 on Amazon
- 4yr replacement plan for the Alpine (just in case rain kills it) $21.78 on Amazon
