decision time: eclipse av3423/pioneer AVH-P6600DVD/ pioneer avic-n1?

[adrian1281 10+ year member]

alright, i'm in the market for a new headunit. i currently have a premier deh-p940mp and i really like it. but i want a screen and dvd playback now. specifically i want something that has good mp3 playback capabilities. the av3423 and AVH-P6600DVD are pretty equally matched in my opinion. i also like the avic-n1 (yes i know it has navi also) but i mentioned it because it's the only one i've been able to get my hands on. and i really like the fact it can display like 10 mp3s at once including the folder name, etc. so my ? is which one you guys prefer. sound quality is important but i'm not going to enter any contests if u know what i mean. by the way, all i've ever used is pretty much pioneer/premier and i'm very satisfied with their stuff. so is anyone familiar with the mp3 interface on the av3423 or AVH-P6600DVD?

depends on how much you care about navigation... if you dont need it you may want to go with something other than the AVIC

you should get neither and go with the eclipse av8132.

I agree- my buddy had his AV8022 tested w/an oscioloscope- no distortion in volume up to 79 of 80.....

well i have an avic n1 and i love the unit, but I am selling it because i am tired of my car being checked out like people want to break my wwindow and take it,

1100 shipped, the thing is practically brand new but like i said i want something stock looking so my stuff is safe and away from petty rock throwing thiefs,

for anyone who is interested:

the eclipse av8132 is BACK on ebay. they screwed me over and cancelled the auction right before it ended because i copied over the features of the unit from eclipse's site. i didnt even know you couldnt do that! here's a link. thanks.

I have an Eclipse AV3423 with only slight use, still immaculate condition, box manuals everything. I am also willing to throw in the commander/navigation unit I bought for it. Everything out the door for $1100 and I'll split the cost of shipping, shouldn't be too much.

On a side note I have numerous other items i'm looking to sell so if you need something Eclipse wise, I've got tons of stuff (12" aluminums, 15" titanium, 15" titanium PRO, da7232 amp, pa5424)

Any serious offers please email me at nick00071182@hotmail.com
