Question about Eclipse

[Why So Cereal? 5,000+ posts]

I'm thinkin about picking up an eclipse 5v 6600 (i think) double din from a member on here.

The reason I've never run alpine decks is because they wont play mix cds. Being a part time DJ, I like to make my own mixes and play them in my car for advertisement and what not. I know most alpines wont play them as i've tried numerous times! my pioneers will play ANYTHING though!

will eclipse units play them?

I dont mean mp3 cds. I mean mix CDs made at home. I couldn't get them to play in Alpines

They will be fine. Alpine plays mix tapes as well. You must be burning them funky.

Hmmm well the only Alpine decks I messed with were displays at best buy so it may work out.

There is a setting on them to play WMA or MP3 discs. You have to enable the MP3 playback.

what format is the file your burning, but yes the 6600 was one of my favorite headunits, but if its anything like the avn7000 single din it WILL NOT play mp3 DVDs

Not quite sure, the ones I tested were burned on iTunes simply as audio cd
