Eclipse 8443 vs Epicenter + Navone LOC

[mjbailey21 10+ year member]

I have an 04 Accord and am using a LOC from Car Toys. I feel like my past systems havent sounded exactly up to par. I am about to get a Brahma 12" which will be pushed by a Tantrum 1200.1

The catch is, its not as easy to replace the 04 Accord HU because it has A/C controls and navi with it.

Basically, the compartment underneath the HU will be replaced with the Eclipse HU but the integration will be hefty labor charges...

On the second hand, I can just switch to my Navone LOC (already have, no extra purchase), and buy a $150 AudioCOntrol Epicenter..

The Epicenter idea will be significantly cheaper, around $150 - $250 cheaper depending on install fees, etc...

Other then testing them both out, I was curious if any of you had input before I started throwing money away...
