93 uhd vs 106 ultra?!?
There has been alot of buzz as of late about the difference between garmins UHD series and the Ultra series unit and its being driven by a black friday deal! Alot of people are curious if the x amount of dollars is worth it to jump to just a "Bigger screen" well im here to tell you its not just a bigger screen!
So today we are going to go over some of the main differences between a UHD unit and a Ultra unit and show you that its not just a larger screen you are paying for, but so so so much more!
Side imaging guys take note! if you are looking for the best side imaging in the echomap unit family look no further, the Echomap Ultras are the top of the line for imagine and my video will explain it all!

Great stuff. The UHDs are great units, but getting the Ultra 106 for basically the same price as a regularly priced 93SV, and it's a complete no brainer. The Ultra 106 is a MUCH better unit. Taking nothing away from the 93sv, as it's a great unit too. But the sale price makes it an EASY decision. If someone still isn't convinced, just go to a Basspro and hit the map button at the same time on both units. There is a significant difference in load time.

Thanks Gerry! I don’t have any first hand experience with the 12” lowrance HDS lives I have used the 9” units and the side imaging was lack luster at best. Full disclosure I’m not well versed in them and I’m sure they could have possible been dialed in a little better with more time. But they did the job and put us on fish. I found them harder to use and dial in, but I’m sure that just takes some time to learn like anything else. If I had to pick I’d pick the garmin unit every time.

I've got both the UHD and Ultra. The UHD processor is a little too slow in loading maps and resolution is fine but inferior to the Ultra. It is aggravating when i switch navigation zoom on the 93 UHD, big lag. I just picked up another 102SV Ultra on sale to replace one of my 93SV's UHD's and am very pleased with the Ultra's performance. Just one 93 UHD left to upgrade now and all three will be Ultra's. Well worth the wait to pick up an Ultra on sale rather than do it like I did and buy a UHD and then later upgrade to the Ultra, which is what I ended up doing.

I understood you to say the 12 inch ultra screen could only support the LVS12 transducer not needing the black box? Is there a work around to use the 12 inch ultra, and the LVS32 live scope transducer? Thanks

Hey Randal, sorry I must have confused you. All the units in this video as well as many other garmin units will support the lvs32 livescope that requires the black box and hooks up via the network ports. There are only a couple of units that can use the lvs12 livescope. It requires NO black box and has a dedicated lvs12 port on the back of the units cradle. I hope that clears things up for you.

Great video and explanation. The ultra is the way to go. One thing I struggle with, regardless of the brand, is the amperage draw especially when talking about the RMS wattage of the transducer. In this video you mentioned 350 watt rms for the transducer. For a 12 volt source this would equate out to 29 amperage draw- which it can’t be. So this would mean internally they are taking 12 volts and stepping that voltage up to let’s say 350 volts and sending that to the transducer which would mean the amperage draw for the transducer portion is really 1 amp. Are we really seeing at least 350 volts sent out the transducer cable to the transducer? This seems incredible to me.

@@MGMarineTech Actually it is the same for power amplifiers and speakers and it’s not uncommon to have higher voltages hit your speakers. Just think the voltage from your wall outlet is 120 volts RMS at whatever amps your circuit breaker is rated for. This is why many home cooking devices are rated for 1,500 watts (12.5 amps) or less -to keep from tripping a typical 15 amp circuit. I’m glad to see your just as inquisitive as I am. I’m surprised there isn’t more videos where people are taking a molded transducer apart -if it’s even possible -or at a minimum winding and making their own and doing tests. I have an electronic background myself, but I find these discussions among fishermen are "too much in the weeds" for them.

I did get a answer from a garmin engineer on this. He stated the the power rating of the the unit say 600watts for a ultra is per channel so 600w for side 600 for down 600 for 2d so the unit can drive a transducer fully. Power output is also dictated by depth/range and not gain.

That’s a hot topic and Bird guys say theirs is better and garmin guys say theirs is just a good a birds. From what I have seen, a ultra or higher garmin with a gt56 are now very comparable to the birds mega. The mega may have the leading edge in some scenarios, but I’ve found the birds clunky and cumbersome to use (I’m sure that’s not the case if you use them day in and day out.) All in all they are both have very good side imaging.

I have seen numerous comparisons of the 93sv uhd and ultra units. As I understand, the ultra uses a GT54 transducer and the plus uses a gt52. Will the Plus unit work ok with a GT54 transducer? Or, is the processor in the plus not up to the task? Would the plus gain any advantage using a GT54?

So the plus is a older unit that’s no longer produced or supported with updates. It will still network with a uhd or ultra. But to answer your question, The uhd and ultra units are both “uhd” units and can use any of the “uhd” ( ultra high definition) transducers such as the gt54 or gt56. The ultras are basically a bigger and better uhd unit. The plus units used the gt52 typically, and can’t take advantage of the gt54 or any Uhd transducers. Unless a gvc20 box is used with a gt34 or gt36

With GT54, you’ll get the same 2D, BETTER DV and SV (455kHz) due to thinner beams. You can’t use UHD SV, but you get UHD DV.

Where is the best place and price to buy the 126 Ultra? HOE doesn’t appear to have in stock. I am seeing $2549.00 everywhere I look w/o transducer (I have a GT56 already on my boat). Thanks for any insight you can provide!

Talk to brig Hennessy at Hennessy outdoor electronics, and tell him I sent you. I would think they would be able to order you one in very quickly but I can’t say that for sure. As far pricing, garmin has a MAP Pricing meaning no one can advertise a lower price than what garmin states.

Yes the u stands for ultra high definition. BUT there is a “echomap uhd” unit and a “ultra” both are “echomap” They run on the same software but are vastly different units inside and out.
