Alright it's official! I'm getting my Eclipse AVN726E and Focal Access Component speakers installed tomorrow morning at 10! Can't wait to finally have a screen in my truck! I'll post pictures as soon as I get my truck back with everything installed!

You'll love it, I loved the night and day difference I had when I changed out my speakers. What amp are you using to power the components?

I'm just running the speakers off the head unit right now. Spent all my money on the head unit and the speakers. There's a guy that I met at the audio shop though that has a brand new Kicker 5 channel amp that he wants to sell for 200 that I'm kind of looking at.
And I got it at my local audio shop Ben. It's been going for $1300 but right before I went in to buy it I checked the prices online with authorized retailers and they dropped the price to $799 so I got the shop to match that. IMPORTANT - I know you're trying to save up for your family right now but if you can, you might want to try and get this soon. Eclipse is getting shut down and will no longer exist soon. That is why they dropped the price. Fujitsu Ten who owns Eclipse decided it wasn't profitable enough since they are making a ton of money in the OEM market now.

What about warranty concerns - will they still have support?

I didnt know they are shutting down.... if that is the case then I'll pass on buying it. I've already had issue's with Pioneer and their service dept.... I guess I'll just be getting a Kenwood, JCV or Alpine now

Warranty is my main priority! And YES warranty will still be honored. Fujitsu Ten owns Eclipse. Eclipse is closing but Fujitsu Ten is not and they will still be honoring the warranties. I mean you definitely can't beat a 3 year warranty!

3-yr warranty beats 2-yr of the JVC, Beez. If you're going to invest in a nice unit, check this one out.
Zack - keep us posted on how it all turns out some time today! And put up a sound clip just for the heck of it....j/k

I talked to them. They were only $100 cheaper and I had just heard of too many people having problems with them. I figured it was worth the extra $100 to get it locally and have that security in case anything went wrong.
But got everything installed and it sounds/looks GREAT! Try and get some pictures taken today and uploaded!
