New MP3 Headunit to replace existing Clarion - 28/06/2006 17:46

I am looking to replace the unit for an MP3/CD Head unit.

Has anyone recently bought any new units they could recommend? Looking to spend between £100-£160

Cheers

Austin

This one Sony looks good value.

Alpine, Pioneer, Blaupunt etc are all good. Get the best you can afford would be my advice.

I have that Sony one in my punto, very good...couple of weeks ago, it cost me £150 fitted at Hellfrauds and they gave me a free cable to attach my MP3 player to the headunit

Can get it cheaper if able to fit yourself, I went for ease and immediacy

Which gives the ability to play DVD Mp3 discs! One Disc all year!, thats about 47 Albums on a DVD!!!!

I've always liked Kenwood units, and found the sound quality to be verry good.
The ones here do MP3, WMA and AAC, as well as accepting a usb mass storage device so you could add a portable hard disk of music at a later date

This one looks pretty good:
