[QUOTE="Wary, post: 1963335, member: 562426"] I currently have a Eclipse 8445. I dislike the fact that I ran out of regular CD's and that I only have DVD's left to burn for music but the 8445 doesn't play DVD's so I'd have to go out and buy more CD's. I'm usually constantly switching CD's too, so I'm currently looking for a deck that plays DVDs. I would definately be worth and a lot easier and enjoyable to have the DV3101 that Eclipse has that's like a hideaway DVD deck, but that's goign to cost at least an extra $300. I'd rather just buy a new deck I think so I was just wondering what some opinions would be to upgrade from my Eclipse 8445 to a DVD playing Deck. If the Nav deck could put out near the SQ of my Eclipse deck I may consider it as long as it's not too expensive, cause I don't want to shell out anymore than $1000. I think I'd be willing to do a price around Alpine 9861 and not much more. One of the reasons I got the Eclipse 8445 is cause of the 8 pre-volt and I heard Eclipse made some of the best decks, but now I'm not crazy about the shitty display on the Eclipse decks and switching songs is really annoying cause the wheel is so senstive! And I don't really like the remote either... haha With the Zapco Symbilink I'm able to achieve 16volts by doing a 6dB boost from the 8volt preout on the deck and switching it to 6dB on the SXSL. My setup to get an understanding what suggestions i'm lookin for. Eclipse 8445 Zapco 9.0 to JL 2 12W7's. Zapco 4.0 to Boston Z6's. SXSL-II All Symbilink from Zapco. The balanced line driver stuff. Thanks! forgot to mention, the Satellite radio on my Eclipse deck, Sirius, sounds like shit, my mp3s sound way better and I heard from a local place here that sells Eclipse, says that on some decks, that's what happens, it's shitty quality, so I was thinkin about gettin that S60 Sirius offers on the new deck and screw the adapter i ahd to put in under the seat for the Eclipse unit that sounds like shit.
