My first post Great site for info [img]graemlins/bow.gif[/img]

Coming in April I will be purchasing a new head unit for my car. I will be looking at an Eclipse deck or an Alpine unit. Just curious when will the new 2004 deck's be released? I know the '04 Eclipse decks will have built in mp3 support '03 you must use a outboard equipment. Thus I am leaning to the Alpine unit. Looks are not that important to me I am looking for sound quality.

Any opinions would be greatly appreciated! [img]graemlins/headbang.gif[/img]

The local shop here in the states has atleast 2 of the new eclipse models in the board. The others will be coming in over the next month or 2 I think?

The new eclipse decks should be available up in very very soon. I have seen pricing and the brochures on them and im very impressed.

Thanks for the info
Do you guy's have any info on the new Eclipse model's? The new Alpine's are on their web site already The CDA9833 and 9835 are the ones I'm looking at but they are not out yet, I will need to touch and feel before I buy. Right now I've been looking at the CDA9815 WOW!!! awesome piece With this model being replaced the price has come down I should be able (if I choose too) get it for under $600 CDN any comments on the best dealer for price on Alpine in the GTA east?

Here is a thread I started on SD regarding info on the 04 eclipses. It might answer some questions for you.

Thanks Perry!! Looks like maybe May before we see the 5444 model This one I think will be comparable to the Alpine models I have seen and like I will keep an eye on this thread and your sounddomain.com one in case anymore updates.

Is this correct 50 volt preouts or 5 volt??

oops, typo

you should be able to pick up a alpine cda9815 for under 500$ or the cda9813 for under 400$

Point me in the right direction ebay is not an option because of warranty issues
