[QUOTE="hispls, post: 8715720, member: 614752"] Basically any head unit outside of the gutter brands should be fine as far as functioning as it should and sounding good. Pioneer, Kenwood/JVC, Alpine are probably most popular and all trustworthy brands. I've had good luck with Jensen in the past and have been really digging the Sony lineup for the last few years. Really it all comes down to picking the tier with features you feel you "need" then I'd suggest if at all possible go into a brick and mortar store and see if you can play around with them. My definition of user friendly/intuitive controls and display may not be the same as yours. This is all personal preference and IMO more important than specific brand. In short, look at the reliable brands and see which one you like the look and feel of. [/QUOTE]
