pioneer p940mp or Eclipse cd8053?

For me personally there would be no competition.  Eclipse beats Pioneer hands down, so that would be my choice.  If flashy displays are more important to you than sound quality, however, the Pioneer gives you more of that.

If there is no retailer in your area (which I find surprising; where are you located?) you can buy on line at any number of places, such as: http://www.acaraudio.com/ or even on eBay.

Or email Chuck  HERE and see what kind of price he can give you.

yeah. i live in streetsboro, ohi have been in so many place and i havent found one place that eclipse.  i have been back at mentor wehre i use to live and the was a store that use to sell eclipse but the move to florida about a year or so ago.  it is kinsda hard to find eclipse sellers.  if you have more link for this headunit for cheaper that would be gratefull also do u think this head unit will kae a big different thatn what i have?  here is my setup:

alpine cda-7893

Diamond audio m3 5.25 componets up front

Lanzar 500.2 powering the components

2 solo barick l7 15 dual 4 ohms in a 2.25^3 bokx each seal.( i wanted port but couldnt figure out how to squezee 3^3 each but i might be makin a ported box once i get time and it warms up a bit)

jbl 1200.1 for subs

no rear deck

Go with the Eclipse, it is an amazing cd player, not build for show, it's built for go, send Eclipse an e-mail, found at www.eclipse-web.com  to find a local dealer for you. Eclipse has an extremely strict policy of absolutely no internet sales, dealers are actually not even allowed to advertise on their own web pages about pricing. Any bozo with a computer can post up a price and tell you what you want to hear, but the fact and cold hard truth is, Eclipse must be purchased at an authorized retailer. They have numerous methods of controlling their product and if warranty is important for you, the only way to have the 3 year warranty from Eclipse as well as the free replacement if it is stolen, is to purchase from the authorized retailer. Enjoy your tunes.

i did email eclipse about 4 days ago and havent heard anything from them. i alway love eclipse headunit. i like there security system on their cd players too. im lookin but havent been able to find  it anywhere on line the model that i want. im going to email that chuckcar audio guy to see what he tells me.

thanks

guys
