alpine head unit

looking to buy a new head unit. a lot of the people that i talk to seem to like alpine quite a bit so i think im gonna go with that. basically all i need is a head unit that plays burnt cd's (basically all of the new ones do) and one that doesnt skip becuase of the amount of bass. if you know a lot about head units and which one would work for me, please let me know the product number. just list the number and i will look it up. im trying to pick up a fairly good one but i dont want to pay for all of the extra stuff that i wont use. so basically just tell me what you think i should do...thanks

any of alpine's models should do well, we can't give you a model number since we don't know what features you want or your budget. Just go on www.crutchfield.com and look around a bit, find one you like, then go to ebay and see how much you can get it for.
