7949e = http://www.drivingsound.co.nz/alpine.htm

7949???

the difference might be that the E has RDS and the other not. the other features should be the same...

the 7949 could be the US model. it will have different radio frequency selections; so 'am' radio is unlikely to work here, and was not selectable for 'region' on that HU. they were also 'black' from memory.

the 7949E is the australian version and might be shared with other regions (although i presume there was a 7949J for japan). the ones here were grey in colour.

i used to have one of these and they were great for SQ.
