I think 1hz and 3hz increments would be a little too much. However the Clarion has more frequencies to choose from on each of the filters, 25hz to 20khz & through HP on the highs (only 1.25khz to 12.5khz on the 80prs), 630hz to 10khz & through LP (only 1.25khz to 12.5khz on the 80prs) and 25hz to 10khz HP on the mids (only 25hz to 250hz on the 80prs), 25hz to 10khz & through LP (only 25hz to 250hz on the 80prs) and through & 16hz to 250hz HP (none for the 80prs) for the sub. All slopes are -6dB or -12dB for each of those filters which is a bit limited but hell, you can almost set the SSF for the sub with the HU! Not to mention that each of the 5 bands of the EQ can be set to any frequency in the list from 20hz to 20khz with Q slopes of 1, 3, 5, 7, and 20 for each band as well where the Pioneer's EQ doesn't appear to be parametric but graphic. I also like the fact you can turn down each of the high/mid/sub sets of channels separately as well allowing some level matching without going to the gains on the amps. Like I said, add that adjustability to the Pioneers better number of EQ bands plus L/R separation, being able to switch phase on the individual speaker, and crossover slopes and it would be the ultimate HU. Who do we need to talk to about building a HU with all these capabilities? LOL
