[QUOTE="birdwatcher, post: 6329152, member: 609023"] I have had both and here are my two cents: 1) The Eclipse will blow away any Alpine in terms of sound quality and built in features. 2) The Alpine will blow anyone away in terms of IPOD control and a screen that you can actually read in the daytime with the sun shining. 3) The Alpine Imprint (automatic) tuner is aweful. 4) The Eclipse has the worst screen for reading on the single dins. * Side note - my Eclipse couldn't handle running Sirius and the IPOD control at the same time, older version though 2005. If we could take the best of Eclipse and Alpine, we would have the best HU IMO. [/QUOTE]
