help...clarion dxz825 or eclipse 5443?

[DuCe]

i have the clarion right now and im pretty happy with it but i can get a great deal on the eclipse and i was wondering which was better. im grabbing the eclipse today anyway but if the consensus says the clarion is better i will just sell the eclipse and keep the clarion. but i always hear great things about eclipse so i will see.

thanks a lot

well the guy that i was getting it from already sold the 5443 which he had promised to hold for me till tomorrow. but he did have 1 5442 left which he said he would give me for $40 off the price of the 5443 so i took it. it seems to only have a 2 pre amp outputs but everything i read says it has 3. the only rca's on it says line out, front, and rear so now im very confused...

Eclipse makes a better sounding deck imo. Is that a 5442 or CD5442(with motorized face, etc). What is the price?

the price was extremely low. and its brand new as well. i wish i came across this deal before i bought my clarion but its all good ill just sell my clarion now its only 5 days old (store was renovating and they found the box sitting there..2002 model i believe) i should be able to get a decent amount for it.
