Looking for a quality ANDROID connectable Double Din Head unit - PLEASE HELP!!!

[blueline004]

I'm looking for a DDin Head unit of high end quality. I need it to trully mirror and control my android phone. NOT just a few apps. I want to use my sirius/XM app, Netflix, Youtube, movie players and audio players. I know overseas radios like the Eonon's work, however, I'm not sure about SQ, so i figured I'd stick to the brands I know will give me good sound.

I've been looking at Pioneer, Alpine, Kenwood and Sony, but I'm not sure if they work completely. I'm also open to other decent decks.

Any suggestions?

Thanks!!!

I believe JVC and Kenwood, maybe, are supporting 2-way communication over MHL. I've tried it with a JVC head unit and these two manufacturers are under the same roof now. Sony has XSP-N1BT that uses your smartphone as your radio face, if your phone will fit.

The Sony SP-N1BT is an interesting idea. Not sold on it yet, but i'll give it some thought. Thanks!

I think the Kenwood might be the way to go but I need to do more research or see it in store.

Thanks!

I did look at the 4100. Real nice unit, however it's a bit limited for what I need it to do. Looking to use specific aps, not just what the deck integrates.

Those are the only brands I consider as well ha.

I am too looking for a double din with some Android connectivity, but its not a huge deal. For me I think ive narrowed it down to the Pioneer 2700bs and the Kenwood ddx372bt. Im kind of on a tighter budget with this car..
