I have the pioneer deh-p2500 and it's a great deck. I'd honestly get the deh-p3500. thats the deck i shoulda got, but didnt wanna spend the extra 30 dollars at the time. Now that I'm more into car audio, I'm disapointed that i didnt get the 3500. I'd reccomend any Pioneer deck to you. They're all pretty *easy* to use and have features that you'll actually USE. Alpine makes nice HUs that are pricey though. You can buy a bottom of the line pioneer from walmart for 115.00 and it will still be of great value. their RMS wattage is listed at 23watts. hmmm i dunno bout that, but atleast they list SOMETHING..good luck
