[QUOTE="dbakek, post: 7555247, member: 637860"] I'm just piecing together a small system for my Forester. I've had a Kicker KX350.2 laying around for a while, and decided to put it to use. Just bought a SSA DCON 10 that should be here on friday. I'm looking for a decent double din stereo to run it with. I've got the stock door speakers, etc. for now, but will likely upgrade within the year, and wouldn't mind a small 4 channel amp to add later. I've looked at a few, and really like the Clarion CX501. It's simple looking, the 4V preouts should be fine, and has the usb/aux front input. I'll use the bluetooth functionality also. I found it at Sonicelectronix for 199 shipped including the wiring harness, which seems fair for this. My question is, how's the quality on the newer Clarion stuff? Are there any better units for around the same money? I prefer something with more of a stock look to it, I don't want an in dash DVD, touchscreen or any of that. [/QUOTE]
