http://www.pioneerelectronics.com/pn...552934,00.html

ok i called my dealer just to see how much they were selling it for, they said 190 plus tax... i dont know not bad.

now i was originally going to get this.

http://www.eclipse-web.com/cd/cd5415.html

i think they wanted about 210 or something for this one.

i know they have the one year theft, and esn. But i guess ppl are starting to know more about eclipse, and someone sees a eclipse hu in my car, there going to be like.... hhhm he couldve bought some cheap regular jvc hu but he got an eclipse, so he must have a nice and expenisve system. pops the trunk and thats that. thats the only thing holding me back from the eclipse is the no detachable face.

The thing is i started college now, and parking is not available on campus for me right now... and im afraid right now just leaving my car on the streets....

 

Avi,

Why post? You know what most of us will say anyway. We you starved for attention as a child?

Ok so someone sees an Eclipse Bottom of the bucket model which is in the same ballpark price as the one you were looking at in Pioneer, so why would they think any less of the Pioneer? Cause the face is off? Its really not hard At All to tell what kind of radio it is even with the face off. So Im not getting your point at all.

Either way, I know your a firm believer of form over function, rather than function over form, so go for it.

BTW..I sell the 5425 for $199.

 

5425? for 200? werd!! so wait.. then how much could you get the 5415????

PAYPAL IS WORKING NOW HOMIE!!!!

 

what you mean form over function??

 

lol be nice Don

Form over function...SQ > features like detachable face.

 

hmm....now what was this about you being done with audio for the time being?

 

oo form over function.. hhm...still thinking...

ive never heard an eclipse though. maybe ill make a secret face to put over the eclise radio....

 

I really didnt mean it the way it came out, but we do tell him things alot of times and it seems he does the opposite.

Avi you know I wasnt tryin to be a *****, but you also get the point..

 

Function...Quality parts,useful things,etc...

Form...pretty little dolphins jumping around on the screen.

 

yes i guess your right, lol i guess its always been that way.
I like the display on the pioneer alot though. i was traveling with in my friends car today, and he had a premeir hu, and man that thing is so nice, i love the display on it, its mesmorising lol. i mean i could just stare at it for hours.. im tired of staring at the time and track number. who cares. i like the DOLPHINS!!!

 

Don, what do you say I get
http://forums.maxima.org/showthread.php?t=417435

 

haha, sad thing is...that money spent on dolphins can get you a better HU without all the eye candy...

 

I personally wouldnt buy any of the amps at all. The comps I would say Maybe the CDTs. I only browsed through quickly and didnt go to each link. Although if you provide me with a budget, Im sure I could definately help you on this one...

 

My point exactly. I think we would all feel alot safer knowing that hes looking at the road rather than his dolphins too

 

Up to around 500-600

 

hey alteast i didnt mention alpine again..

btw the alpine indashes ive seen are sexy

 

Hmm for HU, front comps,rears and amp?

 

look at the road? why? dolphins are nicer


plus it has a remote control!! btw DON the 5425 has remote ready right?

dam that shiet is hot remote control biches. i could drive with my chair all the way back and not have to touch the hu




:

 

Yes

I was thinking Kenwood amp or MTX amp if you get to end of thread

 

I just bought this one from Don, and I still have some change in my pockets

 

Now that my friend is a realll nice HU. beautiful

how does it sound compared to what you had last time?

 

uhhh....most if not all decent HU have remotes now a days...

 

I don't have it yet. But I'm assuming it will sound tons better than my OEM HU that I've only used in my Maxima.

 

The 5415 and 5425 dont, but you can buy em for an additional $20....

 

O yea, it will

Didnt know you were runnin stock Tim. Did you need the ant adaptor,harness and kit as well?

 

you had oem with a system? i remeber my oem hu with a system. i thought i sounded good. thats when i got that garbage xplod hu in there and it sounded much much better than the bose crap. btw your going to oem to eclipse... your going to love the sound quality man. no more distortion and all that crap. even your door speakers and shiet will sound sooo much better

 

ah, learn something new everyday

 

Post in my thread what you think I should buy Don. Any special deals from you? I want cd/mp3. Good speakers with good bass responce and a good amp. I do not plan to get subs in the future.

 

Don pm me a price for the 5415 plzzzz

 

Yeah, I had two actually. 1 for the sub amp and one for the 4 channel.

 

Specials? Hmm...Diamond M3 comps and a Dimaond D5 300.2...Hows about $225? really wont get much better than that

 

LOL @ dolphins. One of the first things I look for in a head unit.

Not that I use em all at once, and one I don't really use, but I'm up to 4 remotes in the car...at a point where it isn't cool anymore...but funny

Microvision remote I don't use
Eclipse HU remote
Microvision DVD MP3 remote
and the Sirius remote.

Theres no way I'm surviving this year without losing one of em....

 

Don price for 5415

 

*about* $179. I dont sell hardly any of them, most people opt for the 5425 or 35.

 

This is quicky becoming a "Don, what's the price on this Eclipse?" thread.

 

ziplock bag

 

Dunno why I even bother though, hell get something fancy instead...

 

LMAO

 

Gordon, you are in rare form tonight. Too much sun and heat me thinks.

 

lol possibly. could also be the side effects of exam day trauma
