[QUOTE="RunninRedline, post: 3102510, member: 578010"] Ok so I'm about to go out to my car and beat my head against the steering wheel till I bust it open. Not really but that's how I feel. I'm looking for a new Double Din Touch Screen DVD/NAV Unit. I drive a 2004 Pontiac GTO and currently in the car is Polk DB series 6 1/2" components up front 6 1/2" 2 ways in the rear and 2 8" JL Audio W1V2's free air on the rear deck behind the passenger heads (where normally people have 6x9's I had factory 6 1/2" free air subs). All this is powered by a JL 450/4 Slash Series amp and it sounds ok. Current problem is the factory head unit is made by Blaupunkt or whatever and their aftermarket stuff is **** so i can only imagine what this factory unit is rated at for S/N. So I've been looking into a bunch of different DVD/NAV Touchscreen 7" units and I don't know what to pick. Current list that I'm interested in are: Eclipse AVN 5510 Kenwood DNX-7100 So after driving around town and playing with a couple display units I decided that I don't like the NAV of Eclipse and I don't like the interface of the Kenwood but love that fact that it's got built in Garmin as I currently have a Garmin C330 and absolutely love it. I have a 30BG Ipod video that I'm gonna connect so I want a good Ipod interface which I've read is good on both units. Now my main question of mine is do I want a higher S/N Ratio or a higher Pre-amp voltage? I really want good sound quality and a easy to use interface. Money isn't really too big of a factor in this case as I'm going to be spending a ****load of money either way I look at this so if anyone can recommend a unit they absolutely love it'd be much appreciated.
