mp3 head unit recommendations

[M@nJo]

havent been keeping updated with the headunits lately, but im basically looking for a mp3 headunit by alpine or pioneer (as they are my fav brands) that offers:

-mp3 compatiable
-subwoofer drive.. meaning my car will play all 4 car speakers AND subs. unlike my older model pioneer, if i want the sub to sound, i have to sacrafice my rear speakers for subs
-adjustable EQ's for lows/mids/highs/fhz/etc
-preferably white, red, or grey face display


i want to spend $250 at most shipped (i plan to ebay it )


thanks all

i got the pioneer P8MP for $240 shipped. I love it and its OEL display. or the Pioneer 8500MP or something. that one is color display the P8mP is blue display. i like the P8MP over the other simply cuz of the way it looks. really unique love it

I have a Alpine 9815 which is almost the same as the 9835...im thinking about selling it because I want to go back to a simple deck that has bass and treble adjustment. This deck has too many controls and settings that I dont really care about. Let me know if you are interested. This is the first deck I have that plays mp3's and its my favorite thing about this deck, I was really suprised at how fast it was. goodluck finding a deck man

anyone know the true difference between those 2 pioneer decks? they look exactly the same and have same features AND same price. but one is just under the name premier?

the premier has more voltage

ive narrowed it down to the premier. but what i want to know is does this deck have a sub rca slot where i can insert 2 rcas from my mono amp to behind the deck without sacraficing any of my car speakers? i ask because the deck i have now will only power the sub if i switch it for the rear 6x9s and i hate that

my set up is 1 sub, 1 mono amp for sub, 4 car speakers running off deck power and dont plan to amp just yet
