Need a headunit £150

robnut · 2 Mar 2009 at 20:12

As title really, the bmw i have bought has decent alpine speakers all round but a rather ancient jvc cd player. Im looking for a headunit around £150 that has mp3. Would prefer it to match the dash lights but not massivly important.

usb would be something new to try as would bluetooth but i think thats a bit rich for my budget.

Any suggestions?

Thanks.

Rob.

Those speakers would sound a million times better with an amp. You can get a headunit that does what you need for 100 and then spend the rest on an amp off fleabay.

Just amp the rears you mean? The headunit is total tosh tho, i can always get a amp at a later date.

I'd amp the fronts, thats where you sit after all

What i mean was spend 100 on the hu and then get an amp.

hmm, Rears are 6x9s that i aint a fan of. ill have to whip the front speakers off and see what alpines they are as im only going on the sellers word. What headunit would you suggest? I aint bought one in about 5 years and that was a pioneer.

I've never brought a head unit so i won't recommend one for you!
