From what I remember, the lighting is different as well as some internal parts upgraded but I cant recall what (op-amps maybe?). In Japan is was called the DRZ9255SE
Just as the DRX9275L is to the DRX9175L, the HX-D3 is to the HX-D2. Same units, different years. There is the possibility that there were a few changes made, but unlikely.
La HXd3 es una HXd2.....una de las muchas versiones japonesas con iluminación diferente y alguna cosa más de estética unicamente... Lo leí hace un tiempo en un foro de Singapur.
Un abrazo.
Anyway I saw this on ebay to and I was wondering? I like the new more blacked out cosemetics of the HX-D3 vs. the grey/chrome look of the HX-D2 I will own one of these as well oneday...
The front panel is different. I think that it's black or similar. I put you information I searched in internet about this HU.
"The Clarion HXD3 is the new version with modification and sound improvement, the main differents were, it uses more advanced 24 bit cpu / ic (inside parts) which can produce more clear and high sound performance. The display panel colors and design are different to fit customer's need. This is a special edition with limited production due to Japan manufacturing plants slow down their supplies. The Clarion HXD3 quality is the same grading as Mcintosh MX-5000."
I agree with tokospeaker. In my opinion, the mx4000 +mda4000 is better than 9255. I have drz, mx4000 combo and mx5000 combo with mda5000.
For the TA i am using an Alpine processor, 3681.
IMO, i think the MC is better in highs, deeper soundstage and images
Well, do define the terms of "better", "best".....
Under car enviroment, a dead head that can't adjust crossover points are just too tedious to get things right, unless the passive components I can return back to the seller...
I told that's MY OPINION, i got better results with Mcintosh combo, but there are a lot of processors that you can use (Zapco, Audison bit one, Alpine, etc) if your limitation is x-over, eq, bla bla bla
I didn't look with attention because it arrived this morning, but in a some days I will give you more information about the differences.
Thanks
