My vote is for the Clarion and if you can find one of the multiple EQ/DSP's they have for them, get it. They are both, for the most part, on par with each other. The Clarion is a pinch more high end.

I'm trying to be unbiased about this too. I've never liked the older Pioneer HU's, but have always been a Clarion freak. I have more Clarion HU's then I should, but I'm a collector of them. ADCS-1, 7770, 5780CD, DRX9375r, DRX9575Rz, 920EQ, DPH9300. And I'm still looking for more.
