Had a HDS5 on my last rig.It was great.Have hummingbirds now. find the hb easier to use. Liked the lowrance hds graph better. just my opinion.
I have one on my boat, wife bought it for me this Christmas, now my son and I have been out fishing and he showed me some things on it, using the plotter to get to the mats faster etc...he also loves it...I do a variety of fishing long lining, spider riggin and one pole hand fishing and find it works great in all three aspects. No I don't have any of the maps on it just using what comes with the unit.
I have the Elite 5 DSI. Installed it last Fall and love it. Great detail. I have the sensitivity set so I can actually see my bait below along with it's movement. Clear in bright sunlight as well. The Navionics chip I have with it has 1 foot contours for Toledo Bend. There's a sticky in the fishing electronics forum about this specific unit - a very good read.
Thanks always been a fan of Lowrance and now that its on sale I think I'm gonna take the plunge and get one.
Where is it on Sale?
Since they're on sale pick me one up too, I'll gladly pay you Tuesday for an Elite 5 DSI today,,, lolQuote:

I did some research; it seems like a good unit. Cabelas Club price is $399; you can buy it new on e-bay for $326. I've been wanting a down imaging unit; this may be the one.
My bad; that was the 5x; the 5 is $362........
