i dont care about looks alls i care about is specs and on paper idk what to do the kenwood has a excellent signal to noise ratio very high and very good sound options and alls i care about is quality sound. on the other hand the eclipse has a true 25w rms and more power is more sound. so im having trouble. alls i want is opinions out of these two im sure there are alot of people who hate these brands but with this info please help me pick which one.

SNR doesnt mean SHIT.

Eclipse hands down.

5V preouts,7 band EQ, no cheesey "DSP" crap.

[FamousFresh]

check this headunit out sony mex-bt5700u

but kenwood is the way to go very dependable but the sony one is pretty good too

[jayson_waltz]

^sony car audio is shit. plain and simple.

[irondiezl3]

well this kenwood sounds amazing i cant believe i was wasting my time all these years with pioneer there is no comparisson in sq thx for advice nate

[JLw7123]

I like the 2nd one have you looked alpine headunits.

[irondiezl3]

so i got my new speakers in the back ran new thicker wire for them got the new head unit in alls i have left to do is rewire the fronts but i was wondering i there a place i can run this wire through the door so u wont see it i need clean install i hate when u can see the wires? if so tips instructions appretiated.

[Ryan from Ohio]

The the rubber door grommet...

You got the Kenwood?

The Eclipse was clearly better SQ wise.

haha oh well.

[irondiezl3]

yea i bet it was i always heard good things about elcipse but it sounds way better than my pioneers so im happy that b e great if i can get it through the gromet maybe a metal hanger? to fish it through? i bet i wont be able to get 14 guage through there.

[cherrington17]

sure you can. its not THAT hard. I got 16ga, and 4x 18ga though there

[irondiezl3]

perfect idk if going from tiny stock wire to some quality 14 guage will make an audible improvement but its worth a shot.

Agreed however they have greatly improved on their HUs. Subs/amps/speakers are still utter shit.

[JLw7123]

yes sony is shit so is dual and all of those crappy brands of audio. I had sony subs they SUCKED.

[Alerojester]

if i had my choice it would have to be the Kenwood, but in my car i have a 7" touch screen by jensen ik make fun if you want but i love my screen especially on long road trips with kids MOVIES the whole way
