Which head unit?

[caveman017 10+ year member]

I'm looking in the $100 range for a head unit that has MP3/Aux input. I have pretty much narrowed it down to the Dual XDM-6820 which has had a ton of positive reviews on it for $90, or the Panasonic CQ-C1333U for about $103 shipped that only has one review.

Panasonic CD Player

Dual CD Player

I'm getting them from amazon since Its cheaper then Crutchfield and I have a $45 gift card. I dont really need any pre-amp outputs since I will never get an external amp, so....

Are MP3 CD players really worth it? I dont knwo how hard it is to find a song so..

i think panasonics the more reliable brand. if you're not paying a lot for an mp3 cd player then yeah its hard to find songs. my first deck was similar to these but i didn't mind i would just put them in artist/title order so i kinda knew where what was on the disc. if you pay for higher end units you'll be able to find songs easier though
