Best Headunit....?
#41
my votes would be with Denon,Nakamichi or McIntosh.... Nothing with mp3's since the sound is TERRIBLE and a nice face,classy style not disco light show.
I guess it depends on what you want.. buncha features that you can show off to your friends or QUALITY.. For quality you dont need flashy screen,crossover points on the deck (useless trinkets) and all those bad sounding pre-programmed sound level things (rock,Classical,Pop... you know the ones) Ally ou need is bass,mid and treble and if you have a quality system everything else is adjustable where it should be.
I sound angry... guess i am just kinda sick the hype of mp3 and flashy screens

I'd go for Alpine looked @ all other brands can't understand did they all fired their designers? D@mn why other brands CAN NOT afford control buttons on the left side like Alpine did?
P.S. CAR AUDIO GURU pls explane me what the signal-to-noise ratio (db) stands for?
And which brand is best for trance music.

Kenwood Excelon head units are my personal favorite, they usually have a nice medium between function such as eq's and crossovers, and cool features such as screen savers and this year they even have a g-force meter on some models. I have owned everything out there including pioneer, eclipse, panasonic, sony, jvc, clarion, but i have usually been more satisfied with Kenwood. I go through a lot of headunits since i am an installer and get bored with a unit pretty easily.

I like my Pioneer DEH-P5200 its from 2000, they dont make them anymore, there is a whole series P-6200 and P-7200, i got my 5200 off ebay for way less than $100 and its got all the features i need, check it out.

That said ... your NAK likely kicks some major a$$, but don't knock mp3's like the sheeple do.

but don't buy from there, Ebay sells them refurbed (or new? not sure) for $228 buy it now:

best price for a unit with all these features. the equivalent that pioneer makes is like a hundred more..
and that was way too much research for one day
