Arrow clarion questions

Ok... so I have decided to go ahead and get a clarion unit... but i seriously cannot decide which model i want... the dxz935 with the skr5 center channel speaker or the dxz835mp... they both have their ups and downs to me... is there a major sq difference between the two or are they similar in sound??? having mp3 is a plus but id rather have sq ... but if the two models arent dramatically different in sound id rather go with the cheaper unit and b able to play mp3s... =\ can someone gimme some advice??

argh...it won't let me change the attachment on the first post...so here it is.
Differences: MP3 playback, colors, and sound eq. Personally I can't do w/o mp3s, so I'd go with that one.

but what it doesnt state is that the dxz935 also has a high pass crossover for front/rear/center ... and i think mp3's cut down the sq but to me i think its ok cause it offers way more songs on one disc and is faster to burn im still stuck =\

sonically, no...
the crossovers on most units arent all that good anyways.

also, i attest that with the right color combination of the 728 available on the 835, this unit CAN be seen in the daytime
