got some info on eclipse decks. you might have already seen them (if not, head over to sounddomain forums, there is a link to some pics there).

they have a JVC look now that i am not fond of, but they might look better in person. they have NO cd decks with less than a 5volt pre amp, the cheapest deck is $179 retail with a 5volt pre amp and sub control. with the exception of the cheapest deck, all decks do mp3. the top of the line deck (CD8455) also has a GPS function, thats right, a deck that have GPS navigation. i believe the GPS antenna is optional, but when hooked upto to the deck, you can load maps off of CD's or a memory stick and it will show the map on the screen, i believe there is voice accompanied with this (the screen is not color). the two top decks also are HD radio compatible (whatever that is).

also, the sirius unit for eclipse decks is NOT compatible with older eclipse units, just the new ones.

there is also a new AVN, with a built in hard drive basically for ripping music to.

thats all i have for info.

5V/55 ohm pre out deck for $179 won't though. I posted the pricing/features info on SD. The pricing, overall, looks pretty impressive, imo.

I never said the pricing wasn't good.

I said the aesthetics weren't appealing to me. If I were to get an Eclipse, naturally I'd find a dealer that had one of last years models in stock.

I was trying to make the point that if the performance is there, looks become less important(and the performance value of the 05 eclipses should be very good, imo)

. I view performance as MUCH more important than looks. I know many do not, but I do. Ofcourse, I have no intention of selling my RF 8250.

This should be the time of year for people to get decent deals on 04 decks. The local shop told me that the 05 decks are supposed to ship next month.
