Last time I bought a head unit it was a cassette deck which kinda dates things, but back in the day Alpine were the ducks guts followed by Kenwood, Pioneer I thought were always a bit flashy and cheesy.
Anyway I'm looking for something under £200 and was set on an Alpine CDE-113BT, untill a friend who is a fitter suggested that Alpine build quality had gone down the pan and would get more bang for buck from a Kenwood or Pioneer...
My only requirements are USB and AUX in and obviously as good quality sound as possible, I'll probably add componenents, a sub and my old PG M25 amp to 'jack up da braaaap' at a later date...
So before I ignore my friends advice and buy the Alpine which of therese would you recommend? Or any other.....

No-one?
Personal opinion is that you can't go wrong with Sony. Nice Bluetooth one on that site for a shade over £200 with iPhone support and the ability to play and control music via Bluetooth.
eurgh not sony, not for a headunit. id go down the alpine route (and i have) ive got the 105ri iphone one and its great, easy controls, lots of adjustment, very clean sounding - get some spl dynamic components for the front rip out the rear speakers and get a nice spl 10" sub if sound quality is what your after run it off a 4 channel jbl amp or if you have a bit more cash get a mono and a duel channel but youll get into needing 0 guage wire autoleads do a kit for £60quid which is very cheap

only get that one if you need the iphone support if not you can spend a lotttt less
