Alpine CDA-9807 vs. Eclipse CD3413

I am getting a new HU and I am considering one of the following:

1) Alpine CDA 9807
or
2) Eclipse CD 3413

Both are basically the entry level MP3 player from either company.

Eclipse has a built in on/off front and rear cross over, Alpine has seperate Sub channel. Alpine comes with a remote, Eclipse doesn't.

Both are about the same price at the place I am looking at.

Anyone have an opinion on which I should get?

Amp: Old School Phoenix Gold M44 amp (4 channel)
front speakersiamond Audio M6
Subs: JL 10W3

I might get some 6x9s for rear fill and run them off of the deck power, but I want to hear how it sounds as-is.

thanks

I got Eclipse 3413, i like it so far the only down side about it is so plain, You can't play much with it. I'm sure that with the alpine hu u could find a lot of things to play with. But from what i heard Eclipse make a good sound and clean. Its up to u bro, since ur the one gonna look at it everyday.

Eclipse gets my vote. And the Eclipse does also have sub preouts as well. There are three sets of preouts out of the 3413. And a remote is available for it.
