I have this Headunit, i like it. Are you sure you're getting the MP3 version? I paid £200 for mine but you can get non-MP3 version of this which looks the same for £120

Wont go into it right now. BUT i would have saved your pennies a bit more, and gone for an Alpine or even Kenny.

Its just their build and sound quality. There isn't really any control with it.

oh right, well its not as good as the alpine ones we've got at halfords, 60x4 or whatever they are, but i canny afford one of them, the ripspeed guy at work said they sell pretty well, so they are obviously quite popular, and there ain't a chance of me gettin the ex demo alpine mp3 player cos i only work there part time !!!
Red sxi - has ur cd player stood the test of time ??? does the blue illumination look cool ??

yeah i mean i'm not an overly picky sound quality type of person, just want it to sound good, and not have to change cd every 3 seconds !!
