Wat do u think about this in-dash reciever/headunit? anyone have it? pros, cons? should i got with pioneer instead? im on a low budget.. not really looking to spend 3-400 on a headunit. I currently have a pioneer but it doesnt have an AUX input for my iPod. From what i have read pioneer needs an xtra piece (bought seperately) to use the AUX input. Is this true? i wont be using a cd changer or anything.. just the headunit and my ipod. Any recommendations for someone whose on a low budget looking to spend 200 MAX (including all fees, preferablly less) yet also looking for a good headunit that sounds good with power and good bass?

try looking for a deck off ebay.....there are many good ass deals there...most decks are like 50% off the msrp. I got mine off there for under $200 when it really costs about $350-400 at most audio sites

Definitly try ebay. I just got my Alpine CDA9831 yesterday. Payed 255.99 for it (retails at $419.00). Has more options than a $20.00 hooker. Just remember if you buy a cheap CD player you will get cheap sound. Try buying a good CD player at a fair price. Your head unit is the foundation of your system.

From what i heard from people who own one, the sound quality iv also very good on it so im not worried if it will sound like shit
