[QUOTE="clone, post: 2788872, member: 571539"] Looking (so far) at the Eclipse CD-5100 and Kenwood KDC-X891 to replace my aging Eclipse unit. There are a few things I have in my equation...namely: Ipod functionality - I code most of my music at 320 AAC so it's close to CD audio and I want to be able to easily use the pod in the car. SQ - want the best for the buck obviously and want a clean, nice sounding deck EQ - I'm looking for a moderate level of control. I'm not going to go crazy with settings, etc. but would like to be able to compensate for the basic auto sound problems (like, a car interior sucks for audio). Looks - not the highest on my list but I don't want anything butt ugly Again, I'm not trying to build the world's greatest system. I've got JL's in the doors and rear deck, and will be adding a sub and new amp soon. Thanks for any input.... BTW, I've looked at the CD5000 that's on clearance...still leaning to the 5100 vs. that one. [/QUOTE]
