Humminbird helix 9 chirp mega si+ gps g4n cost $1549.99 and a Garmin Echomap UHD 93sv cost $699.99 this is a difference of $850.02 questions are 1. is hb that much better. 2. Can you see fish with the Garmin side view. 3. I am running hb899si now will the Garmin be as good of pictures as I have now with my old hb 899. I fish 1 to 13 foot water and deepest 19 foot in my lake. Mostly need to see fish on structure with side view. Thanks in advance for any advice.
I used HB for years before Garmin came out with Livescope. It is hard to beat the new Hp units for display. But I doubt it is worth $850.00 more than the Garmin unit.
Before i spent $1600 for an HB I would consider getting a 93sv plus the livescope unit. It will cost you around $2300.00 but it is much better for fish structure and brush piles.
I concur ... and I'd check with Brian@BBGmarine (via PM) to see what current deals he has going on.Quote:

This is because the Garmin price is a black friday old model sale price, or head unit only. MSRP for 93sv UHD g56 is $1,199.99
why replace the ole 899 is my question , they work well and for what you want to see according to what you said , unless it is not working it would still be my tool , they work pretty well and lead folks to lots of fish and or used to .....:dono
or could it be the ever sinister just got to upgrade thing :Rofl
