i have an eclipse cd5030. love the deck. it has 5v preouts... makes a huge difference!! used to have an alpine 9884, also a great deck(new model is cda105 i beleive) but difference between 2v and 5v is huge. i paid 210 for my deck from sonicelectronics, and like i said i love it. if you could, i would say to up you price range a bit, look into an older model eclipse, maybe one might be cheaper. just my $.02
