Need $80-$100 head unit

[Confessed 10+ year member]

Suggestions? Can spend a bit more if it's really worth it and the person can explain why that is to me.

Random info that might be useful to you guys: sub amp is a SS Rubicon 1600. Polk DB651 front speakers. Rear = factory until I can upgrade, at which point I'll ditch the Polks as well.

What all do you need?

Sorry, should have put this in the first post.

Standard radio, 3.5mm jack, USB not required but I'd like it. Nothing special, just need a quality unit for the price.

Idk if this changes anything, but I will be using this for my speakers until I get a 4 channel.

Found this on another forum. Crutchfield has the Kenwood KDC-X395 for $119 then use coupon code 3A825 to get it down to $99

Will I have a noticeable difference between 2-2.5v preout and 4v preout as far as clarity goes? How does the preout voltage affect my monoblock?

I have an Apline CDA-9813 and I also have the "plug and play" 4 channel amp that goes behind the dash to boost your mids/highs with out any wiring.

I can't even find it anywhere that sells it for under $190.

And still curious about preout voltage info...

Contact txaudiocaroutlet($110) on ebay. Also ultimateelectronix($140). See if either of those will be putting them back up. Listings ended a couple of days ago it seems.

zzz.

I'm not curious about the head unit you suggested, I'm curious about preout info that I've already posted about.

Will I have a noticeable difference between 2-2.5v preout and 4v preout as far as clarity goes? How does the preout voltage affect my monoblock?
