Howdy Guys,
I'm after some advice here, my original Alpine unit was a fantastic piece of plastic which to this day is still working and in it's 5th car which has got to say something for it. The only thing which went wrong was the fact that the down volume button had got dust in it which required a simple clean.
I replaced that with one of the Pioneer head units which at the time cost me around the $900 mark which was close to top of the range about 18 months ago.
I recently tried changing CD's to find as soon as I dropped the face down the unit switched off so I had to resort to a jewelers screwdrivers which did the trick, I figured instead of getting it repaired I'll buy a new one but then comes the delemar of what to get.
I was completely satisfied with the Alpine head unit I had previously so I'll be looking at spending around the same as what I did previously. Here's the one I have in mind at present, look here
Price wise I am not entirely sure but from what I can gather prices have really dropped.
Any other suggestions, as I've previously stated I've never been a huge fan of Sony or Kenwood so other than that I'm not really sure.
Cheers
