Billy Bob Posted July 18, 2011 Report Share Posted July 18, 2011 Just out of curiousity, any opinions on a LOWRANCE LCX-19c?? I assume it's an older model but is it worth a look buying a used unit? I installed one of these on a buddy's boat about 7-8 years ago.....great unit and a LARGE screen....at the time he got it for about $1500 with his outdoor right discount right from Lowrance.....BUT YOU WILL NEVER GET ANY PARTS OR SERVICE for this unit as it's deemed a dinosaur in Lowrance's eyes.

limeyangler Posted July 18, 2011 Report Share Posted July 18, 2011 (edited) Money is an object...isn't it always? Sorry...just its what i was thinking after reading what you said about money being an object. It was not meant to be smartass in anyway....it was more about all the other advice seemed a little previous until we knew how much is all, given that you had said money was a factor..

RickOnt Posted July 18, 2011 Report Share Posted July 18, 2011 Hey Raf I guess the only thing with the Elite 5 is you are lmited to screen size? and networking NMEA 2000? with the HDS, if you have room and $ you could go to 7, 8 or 10 Rick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rocket09 Posted July 19, 2011 Report Share Posted July 19, 2011 The lcx-19c is a great unit just outdated, I have one and love it but have been told once it goes down lowrance will not fix it. I also have an elite 5 on the front of my boat and love it, my friend has the hds 5 and I think the elite 5 is a very comparible unit, good luck with your research and purpose. I went to Woodstock to angling outfitters to buy my units and they were very knowledable about the various units. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
