Well i know the PPI PAR-650 is more for the all around system, and ive been considering the AudioControl EPIC-160 because it will help with bass, should i get both or leave the AudioControl EPIC-160 out of the picture? thanks for the input in advance

with the deck you have, i think you'd be better served with the epic 160..the ppi is as you said more for the full system, and your eclipse takes care of the full system very nicely..why mess with a good thing?

well a buddy has the PPI PAR-650, and he says its a night and day difference in his system, and he has a pretty nice SQL system setup with MB Quart QSD216's in the doors and some nice speakers in the rear deck, cant remember which, with 3 10" JL W6v2 sealed with some nice JL amps. So i mean if he sees a difference in some pretty much already badass equitment then i wonder what it could do for me [Smile]

what headunit does your buddy run? I know that if you ran a cheaper/one preout headunit it'd make a world of difference, but if you got a deck that has quite a lot of tuning features in it then..why?

The PPI is a EQ, the epic 160 is a epicenter 1/2 din. I would use both.
