very simple.
i am picking up a new headunit when mr rudd buys my vote and am stuck as to which one to get.
i have narrowed it down to these 2:
http://www.jvc-australia.com/JVC/client/c_products_details.jsp?catID=27&prodID=363
http://www.xplodsony.com/xplod/headunits/MEX-BT2600
please dont suggest any others...i have looked at what else there is and what prices they are and the only other one that fits what i need is a pioneer one for around $500 and i have other commitments for bits of the rudd money and dont want to spend that much. plus i currently have a pioneer headunit and hate the user interface.
Sony!!!, the face looks better

If your budget can allow a slight stretch i would go the Alpine 9886. If you wanna go all out and spend the whole amount, i would look at getting the Eclipse CD-7200MKII. I first started with the CDA-9851 ($550.00) had that for two years then changed it to a CDA-9855R (RRP $899) and now looking at this Eclipse top of the line unit. I would do it right the first time as you'll save some $$$ in the long run.

Theres a fairly big difference in price between the two options, going by the prices on the links.
But i'd JVC if its just two options, it looks a bit more better IMO rather than the Sony.

woah a bit touchy, no offence intended manabir (dont know why your going off). This is a forum and if you do have your mind set, why post? people will almost certainly deviate from what you are asking for with the same intention to HELP YOU OUT. anyways hope ur happy with your purchase..

o ok, normally an Alpine head unit guy and didnt see it on the Australian website. any reason as to why you go rid of it? for that price i would have thought along the lines of the Pioneer reference bundle or for slightly less the Clarion HX-D2. What did this eclipse unit have on top of its competition?

go for the sony manabir. its a good unit and you'll be happy with it. and for future reference mate stick to PA, cause people on this forum have a habit of posting irrelevant posts that in no way are constructive or helpful in any way

becoz i change to Mcintosh MX5000 + MDA5000.. which sound nicer for me.. anyway.. P90RS and HX-D2 is a good deck as well.. and the Legendary vocal HU Alpine 7990.. =)
sorry manabir.. anyway.. Sony look better than JVC.. =)

Manabir should take a chill pill, or take multiple and overdose so we don't have to deal with his whining when he posts on a public forum.
