I was interested in having REUS fly out to see me in a few weeks to install their level 2 system in my car with mirror tweeters (approx cost $4686). The problem is the last time I heard one of their systems was 2 years ago at the NY car show. I remember it sounded good, but can't really recall how good.
Since REUS will be handling the amps, speakers, subs, they told me to choose a headunit. My first choice was Kenwood DNX-7100, second choice was Pioneer AVIC-Z2, and third was Eclipse AVN-5510. Sadly, REUS recommendations were Eclipse, Pioneer, and lstly Kenwood. REUS says the Eclipse headunits sound much better combined with their systems. How are Eclipse headunits compared to Kenwood and the rest?
Can anybody give me some feedback about REUS? Since i'm spending $5k, I want to make sure what I get in good (i know good is highly opinionated). Any feedback would be appreciated. Thank you!
Cheeres,
Jason

I have a completely custom Reus set-up in my 996TT and it ROCKS! Rick Reus is an amzing guy with 20+ years of highend audiophile installs and provide excellent customer service...1st class the whole way. To ensure your satisfaction, I would let him know exactly what type of music you listen to and at what volume and let him work his magic.
I do agree with Reus about the HU. I have been doing car audio both personally and professionally for roughly 10 years and the quality that Eclipse offers is unbeatable. Granite, I'm not to fond of their new designs. The Pioneer is a great unit also. Do your research b4 you have them come out and see which one will suit your needs the best. As far as the quality of Reus, I have read very good things and nothing bad. GL and keep us posted!
thanks for the response guy... i'm 100% going with REUS in terms of the speaker...
i just don't like the eclipse head units! i prefer the pioneer Z2 or kenwood1700 but rick says says to get the best sound quality out of the REUS system, I need to go Eclipse.
I talked to three separate audio shops and they all dislike the Eclipse headunits
anybody here have any experience with Eclipse headunits?

I have an Eclipse double din (AVN 5435 i think) and I absolutely love it. Great interface and sound quality. I have had it for almost 2 years and have found almost no faults with it.
