Im leaning more towards the Alpine but saw the Eclipse and figured Ill get some opinions on the two. Which would you choose?

i would go with the Eclipse, a few more features and only $20 more than the Alpine. I have an Eclipse CD3000 thats about a year old, and I love it. easy to use controls and great sq. I highly recommend Eclipse products

I bought the Eclipse and have to return it because of the Ipod cable in back wont allow the head unit to fit in my dash. Just a thought if you have limited space behind your h/u.

Anyone else have an opinion on these that they would like to tell me?

I have the Alpine CDA-9884 and it is a great HU. However, if I could do it again I would have gotten the CDA-9886 bc of the preout voltage. And for that reason I say go for the Eclipse because it has a 5volt preout and mine (CDA-9884) only has 2volt preout.
