trying to find the best dvd/cd head unit

[Krowned King]

havent been able to find any good units that im willing to part my money for found a couple that are jvc and blaukpunt for a good price but dont know if its worth it i have a soundstream now and dvds do not play right especially with my JLs rattling the #*% out of it anyone out there know what head unit will handle playing cd/dvds without skipping/cutting out with ALOT of bass

A good Kenwood, Pioneer or Alpine would probably be your best bet. Of course that comes with a price. IDK, I ditched CD's a long time ago, iPod is the way to go. Don't have to worry about anything skipping.

If your thinking of upgrading anyway... I agree.. Go iPod ready.. If you still want to stick with a cd unit... Pioneer is the way to go... My 2 c

Yeah I'm so MP3 that I bought a HU that doesn't even play CD's at all, no slot or nothing. Strickly iPod controlled. CD's are wack, they scratch and skip and take up way too much space.

Alpine is the only headunit I use. Never had issues with them at all and I have had about 9 or so. Although I don't personally own an iPod nor will I, that is a good idea. I use my Droid with my current Alpine uses a USB mount on the back and it work great. Here is the one:

Alpine iDA-X305S

i'm a firm believer in alpine and pioneers for headunits.

for dvd's , id say pioneer prolly has my favorite unit. i ran an avh-p4100dvd in my scion for almost 3 years. and i regret selling it to t his day, and they can be had for a good price now that they are an older model. then theres the 4200 and the 4300 (the current model) which are upgrades and are also extremely good units.

plus they have the usb drive that you can play music off of a thumb drive or ipod, and you can play video through ipods on those units as well

Definately a believer oin Pioneer, I have never had anything different. Never had any issues with any pioneer models I have had

Yeah thats what I'm sayin, basically get an MP3 player in general. And yeah that Alpine is what I got. Shit is tight.

if you can find one made by panasonic i hade one in my cb and it was awsome

Panasonic, Pioneer, Alpine, and Kenwood are my suggestions. Sony isn't bad but I have had issues with past Sonys. Kenwood makes awesome indash DVD players.

when you guys are buying the iPod only head units what are you spending on those?

See the link I posted above. There are cheaper ones out there than the Alpine I bought. Look on Crutchfield and pick one. There are plenty.

[JBradley500]

That's a lot more money than i expected. I figured you guys were talking about those 60 dollar ones I've seen lol.
