Woofersetc.com sells eclipse and they make some great units.

I have never liked kenwood units but pioneer offers good stuff in an entry level HU.

Lmao, I'm sure you're sick of me seight311,

But I was looking at this unit Pioneer DEH-P3900MP

And Kenwood Excelon KDC-X491


I couldn't find any good Eclipses on Crutchfield, I couldn't think of any other websites that sell head units.
I get sick of arrogant people, I never get sick of people wanting to learn though!

woofersetc.com is probably the best place online to get Eclipse headunits they are an authorized dealer so the manufacturers warranty stands and I think they give you the parts to install it in your car free? (Not sure never bought a deck off woofersetc.com yet), what is your budget for a deck?

TECHNICALLY, I can spend up to like 400 dollars, but I really just wanna spend like $150-200 bucks.

The one I linked was $175, I liked that one. But, I'm not sure if it's good quality.

If you really, really want to save money go with this one... http://www.woofersetc.com/index.cfm?...roduct_ID=5432

If you can spend the money, and I highly, highly, highly, highly suggest going with this one. You will never find a deck with this many features, perform great and be reliable for under $300 ever... http://www.woofersetc.com/index.cfm?...roduct_ID=4953

^ 8 volt pre-outs!Enough said. ^

You will be happy you spent the extra $75.

You're extremely tempting me, seight311... but, $300 is a lot.

You see, I make $300 dollars a week at my job [Which I will have to quit in exactly 2 weeks because I'm going back to school.]
I still need to buy rotors/pads, a HU, and pay my mom $85 dollars [I have to pay $85 dollars per month for my phone/insurance].
I really wanted to spend like $150-$200 and then buy my brakes, and save up for next month, so it'll hold me over 'till I get a job for the school year.
As I see it now, $600-200-85-150[For the brakes] leaves me with $165, which would give me enough for the HU... but, would leave me with no money [And I still haven't boughten the wood for the enclosure or the wiring.] So, I'm kinda iffy about spending a lot of money.
I want the quality, but if I get this big flashy thing, it'll most likely get stolen... knowing my luck.


EDIT:: Now that I think about it, brakes/rotors are probably more than $150.

maybe you should wait? I've been waiting almost a year to get my hu (my whole system in fact has almost been a year) and i finally started to purchase items for my system. Take your time and buy something that you REALLY want that will REALLY perform like you want it to. Don't settle.

There is no waiting... once this school year starts, I'll be struggling to make ends meet [For car insurance, my phone, gas, food, etc.]... if there's any modifictions I want to do, I have to do them now. After the next school year I go straight to College, so I can't work that summer either.

Besides, I already bought my subs, comp. system, and amps. The only thing I need is the HU.


EDIT:: LOLZ, forgot to Spell Check. >.>

CD2000 if you absolutly have too. The choice is yours, and as you said rotors are going to be more than $150 anyway...

Seight311, you're the devil.


I'm really thinking about getting that $300 dollar HU.

I know I shouldn't...
BUT IT HAS A MAP?!?!?!

Someone talk me out of this!

No one will be able to, as I said before... It cannot be touched for $300. If I needed a head unit, and didn't have the money for a CD7100, or needed a screen unit. CD5000 without a doubt!
