I`ve got a Kenwood Mp3 CD jobbie in mine, only bought it because it was £300

when the next cheapest one (Alpine) was £650.. was a while ago like.. but it

seems to work fine, and the buttons aren`t that fiddly..

I`ve had Alpine units in nearly all my cars and they have all been

fantastic. Alpine DDDrive speakers are also really good. Kenwood tend to

make terrible head units. Panasonic and Pioneer are pretty good but I would

say Alpine would have to be close to being the best. I had a Rockford

Fosgate and despite it`s high price it was a piece of crap.

Had a pioneer in my old car, then swapped it for an Alpine. Much better

sound quality with the alpine. My mate had a kenwood (flashy changey colour

screen thingy) was shit as well. On my Alpine the volume control is playing

up a little and it looks a bit crap (as most alpines do) but you don`t buy a

headdy for looks. Oh and it has MP3 which is great and all that, but I don`t

know if anyone else experiences this. But the sound quality while playing

MP3s is quite a bit worse than when playing CDs. Not like the difference

from radio to CD, but you can definately tell.



Before anyone says, this is comparing a CD burned as audio from MP3s, or a

CD burned as MP3 from MP3s...So the music source files are technically the

same quality.
