USB Head Unit?

I'm looking for a head unit that has USB function. I have a Creative Nano MP3 player and would like to plug it into the head unit. The only one I've found is Kenwood. Any other ones? (good quality)

Re: USB Head Unit?

I've tried pugging in a USB style Mp3 player in to a USB slot on a headunit, and it didn't seem to work for me... I'd recomend the line in as well, it's what i'm currently using.

but i think JVC makes a HU with USB

a lot of mainstream companies are providing USB ports for mp3's. I'd stay away from JVC, and lower end kenwood isn't worth the money imo.

unless you are into serious sound quality comps, I wouldn't worry too much about the head unit - go with the one you can afford and has the features you want.
