anyways, i'll summarize.
turbomangt, you will never have a consensus. ever. you'll have to just make a decsion or keep fence-sitting.
i base my opinion on expierence. you may want to check out your local classified ads and find a good used deck even. i did that with my first unit. if you have kids, swap it into their car and see if you can hear the difference, then spend some cash on something sweet for your pt.
goto a local stereo shop and check out your options, talk to guys there they may even have something to demonstrate for you so you can hear for yourself.
oh and just for your info, you still have some time before spring sales start. springtime is like xmas sales in caraudio-land.
