Need help on deciding 2DIN
 

Hi guys, I've been in the market for getting a new 2DIN head unit for my car and I'm stuck between 3 models

Eclipse ANV726E
Pioneer AVIC-Z120BT
Clarion NX700

If anyone here has used any of these unit can say the pros and cons. I dont know too much about car audio so any input would be appreciated.

Justin?
I have the Z120 in my 350Z and its pretty damn awesome in every way. You should swing by and take a look. Eclipse is kind of out of the game (they don't do consumer car audio anymore). We also have some JVC NT3's which are pretty sweet too plus the screen is removeable.

Hit me up dude!

LOL I did call you today but you didnt pick up :p Ya I was really impressed with the interface of the Pioneer how it had the touchscreen scroll menus and such. what I was not impressed with is that is takes a long time to boot (45 secs) and cannot fast-forward or rewind songs only skip tracks (but that last part is no biggie). I loved the Eclipse in just about every way from the super quick boot up and easy navigation and screen quality. The only thing scaring me away is the fact Eclipse might be going under.

As for the JVC KW-NT3 .... thats a big negative. the only thing I like about it is the detachable face. not a fan of the dvd slot on the face or the giant turn dial knobs.. too busy for my liking.

The Z120 has a pretty quick start-up compared to the Z110 from last year and all other previous models. I can fast forward songs too. I can't think of one bad thing about the deck.

Ya my buddy has the Z110 so I thought the Z120 would be the same. Glad to hear that has been updated. I'll drop by on Friday to check it out.

eclipse head units are done and gone already. I don't believe they are in the head unit game anymore just like Panasonic.

I've sold quite a few NX700's. Awesome unit for the price.

Has USB, Bluetooth, Navigation data is pre-stored on the internal flash memory.

$1399 MSRP

I haven't played with the new Pioneer nav units. But either way I think you'll be more than happy.

Feel free to shoot a PM if you need a quote :)

Yup, its all new software so no lag at all whatsoever.

pioneer gets my vote
