Hi! guys...Well i am looking for a new car stereo for my celica. i sent my old alpine 7892 to my little brother so i don't have a stereo right now installed in my car. I've been looking for an alpine radio and i found the alpine 9884 at cruthfield but it is out of stock. Would you recommend any other brands and references that i can look at right now? What about a JVC but i don't know how good this brand is. I am just a big fan of Alpine but i need some music in my car ASAP. My budget is 200 bucks.
Thanks guys. regards This post has been edited by monky32: Dec 10, 2007 - 3:15 AM |

i'll probably get flamed for posting a sony, but i have the MEX-BT5000 in my celi and i love it. pushing 4 kenwood components, a 600W xplod amp and 2 crappy kenwood 10s. sounds great in my hatch. the bluetooth is good on it too.

oh, and the newer JVC's, like the KD-BT1 for example, are pretty high quality.

Hey! thanks for the suggestions. i would definitely look into these two options. the second one sounds good. well a little over my budget but i think it is affordable after all.

Ewwww. Sony.
Dude, go with Pioneer Premier. They have a lot of cool stuff and they're usually less than 200 even with mp3/wma compatibility. I've had mine for about 3 years and no problems. Won't every buy another brand of head unit. -------------------- "He won't come out of the bathroom. He keeps telling us we're dark somethings and not his friends."

ok well the first thing i would do is go to sonicelectronix.com and find a radio there they normally have really good prices. also the pioners are good, also look at eclipse they are very nice and have great pre out's, i would stay away from panasonic i have one and it likes to shut off on me when the bass hit to hard, also clarion is nice but prob out of your price range
