You'll be hard pressed to find a decent DDIN unit for that price, especially if you want a decent setup on the pre-outs. Cheapest I can think of with 3 sets @ 4v or better is the Pioneer 900BT. Kenwood's 5120 has only 2 sets, 8120 has 3, but it's $1600. 700BT has 3 sets, but they're 2.2v. If you HAVE to have a cheap one, look at the UV8020 from Phase Linear. We have problems with them all the time, but most of the time it's fixed by reseting the unit.

are you looking for new or used, I might have something in your budget, and its slightly used

dude, the preout thing isn't all that big of a deal. as long as they have one for front, rear and sub, don't worry TOO much on voltage, especially if you're on a tight budget. you just have to turn your amp gain up more. look on here and caco and see if you can't find yourself a good cheap used one...

agreed

is there anything bad with the clarion?

clarion = not so great quality...

alpine and pioneer are the best.

fork out another 100 bucks and you can get a pioneer f700bt on fleabay
