[QUOTE="adam71, post: 1890815, member: 549079"] According to whom?? I will agree that Eclipse decks sound really good but that is a generalization that has become far too common on this forum. Pioneer decks are much more than just lights and toys. My 860 is wonderful sounding head unit. My friend used to run a 940 and it was outstanding as well. I've owned alot of decks in my days (including Eclipse) and I've always ended up going back to Pioneer because of the sound quality. I also guarantee that this years Eclipse decks sound NO better than this years Premier decks, especially the 880PRS. To the thread starter: I would suggest finding a place that will let you audition a deck or a place with a good return policy. Chances are however, that you liked the deck in your friend's car because it was DIFFERENT than your Eclipse, not necessarily better. You're going through a period where your deck has become stale to you, in other words it has lost its new appeal to you. I would suggest working on another part of your system and not focus so much on your head unit. Once you have your MTs and your amps all installed and tweaked and if you still can't get past the looks of your deck then go ahead and try something different. Just don't get your hopes up too high though as it is hard to find a deck that sounds that much better than Eclipse. [/QUOTE]
