So we got the CD1000 in today... right out of the box I noticed the faceplate was design was very similar to the JVC design... then I checked out the harness and cage. Identical to JVC. Everything about this deck says its a JVC, save the Eclipse logo on the front.

Is it a JVC, or is it an eclipse?

 
I hope so. Because I stopped by my CC today and Justin is absolutely correct. The cage, harness, and entire chassis of the CD1000 is a JVC unit. I think what's more interesting (and mind-easing) is that the CD2000/3000 have a completely different setup and look nothing alike.

 
There is a crapload of who makes who in this industy and there has been for years. One company is contracted to make cages, another bezels, another amp heatsinks, another one baskets etc.... so there are also a lot of similarities in the industry as well. JVC might make some parts, a sweatshop with armed guards might make another, it doesn't really matter in the end. It's the guts that really count and that is where one company is 99% of the time far different than the others.
