If you think something is fishy in the pricing, go check out both decks, listen to them, and see what you think.  I assume the eclipse you are talking about is the 5423(it retails for $289).  It doesn't have mp3 capability(the 3403 and 3413, both cheaper, do though), but it has 5 volt/55 ohm impedance pre outs, and it is a VERY nice sounding deck.  Hell, an alpine 7998 retails for $800, but I certainly wouldn't take it over my Eclipse which retails for $549.  The 7998 has the oversized face, etc.  Those types of things can increase the price on a deck yet offer zero improvement to the deck's sound.  That is just an example of how a deck can cost more than another and where that extra $$ can go.</p></blockquote><p></p>
