Need to get a 9" unit. Considering Hummingbird Mega , Raymarine AAXIOM, or a Garmin 93sv -chirp units-which is the best bang for the buck?
I believe Garmin has best mapping- advice thoughts?
What 9" unit to buy,,,, would you go Garmin, Hummingbird or Ray Marine or Lowrance?

I would take a hard look at the Raymarine. I know I will when I need a new unit.
Well, look at all the features and see what you like the best and get that unit.....also if you use Navioics, they do not work with Garmin.....

If I was buying all new electronics for my boat it would be the hummingbird helix with the Mega SI. That stuff is unbelievable when it come s to detail.
+ on the humminbird
that's they way I am leaning currently have 2 helix currently
How much better is the MEGA supposed to be than the HELIX regular non-mega? Big difference?
Also I see the 9" mega /SI
I miss my 'birds!!
is $1299 is the extra inch or 10 " unit worth it for another $400???
You don't really want my 93SV gripe list.
I think the new secret color is "A-Rig"..........
Raymarine Axiom 9RV with all-in-one transducer = Sonar, DownVision, SideVision and RealVision 3D
$1,650
I definitely think it's worth the price difference over Gen1 Helix, having dedicated DI was worth it to me. I can tell a big difference in Mega vs 455Originally Posted by creekchub
Love my 93SV's great maps built it. If it's not you can make your own. Oh, and I can add Panoptics.

^^^^^ This is the way I would go.
3 year warranty, 10 year support from the last production date, 10 day turn around max on repair.
Live updates and map updates with Navionics!
Truly a system you can build on, not replace every 2 years
Love my Helix 9
Humminbird that has the capability for 360* scan...I love my Lowrance units but the Hummingbird 360 looks real appealing to me.
Hummingbird mapping is the best I've seen on my lakes
Nearly all competitors are great now, both mapping and imaging. I let customer service play an important role. IMO, hummingbird is the better of the bigs.
