well im gonna toss a head unit in my 95 gt. im partial to panasonic and pioneer. I am not looking for show-winning stuff, just good sound. I don't want to spend more than 200 bucks. MP3 playback is not a necessity but it would be a bonus. can anyone point me in the right direction?

Well actually celimanST is right... JVC is in the "BAD BRANDS" of Headunits. If you ask real sound competition enthusiasts and do searches on audio forums like caraudio.com...they will tell you to stay away from JVC. Even a cheap alpine or eclipse would be better off. Basically JVC is over rated and over priced.
Kenwoods are supposedly pretty good except for the lower voltage preouts on their lower quality headunits, but at the higher end priced at retail from 250+ is really good. Panasonic is not the best but it is a bang for the buck. On true Competion SQ and just plain quality I would say its between Alpine and Eclipse. If you stuck between those two and have the money to buy them, you are just going to go crazy figuring out which one to buy. Especially the Eclipse E-Commander..hehe that thing is just amazing. |
