Head Unit Choice?

[Little Butch]

Can anybody recommend a Headunit, It needs to be able to hook up to my Phone via Bluetooth and plug Ipods In.

Got a budget of about £100

Cheers, Leon

Now your other thread deleted. You generally get a better response if you make some suggestions first so people dont just think your being lazy.
Here are a couple.

Abit more expensive but damn good looking. No CD though

Similar but on budget

You will need an adaptor

That top one looks alright, the others are outta my price range and It needs to play CD's

[Little Butch]

Alpine will give you about the best quality sound on that budget if your running speakers off the HU.
Im sure that you could find others on ebay etc but then you dont get a proper warranty.

 

[Little Butch]

I'll be running everything of an Amp (Sub & 6x9's)

I know It's not Bluetooth but It's Pioneer, within my price range and as long as I can hook my Phone up through Cables I'll be happy and I should be able to as It's got Aux In.

Leon

 

[Little Butch]

I've just been told not to get that one as It hasn't got RCA out?

I'm looking for one now with RCA out and Aux In.

No bluetooth as I can't afford It tbh.

Little Butch what is your budget?

I find that different brands all have their inidividual selling point.

Any Alpine head unit will offer superior sound quality compared to similar priced rivals.

 

[I2EBORN]

If you only want one preout then most midrange headunit such as a pretty stock pioneer, kenwood, jvc or sony should really have one.

However if in the future you think you might want to upgrade your system (perhaps add a second amp or subwoofer) then i would get a headunit with 3 preouts.

I have a sony head unit with 3 preouts:

Another very similar sony head unit with 3 preouts:

But without knowing your exact price range cant really pick you one out.

 

[volxstu]

I dont think anything suggested would be suitable i presume that you need at least 2 sets of Pre-outs. To get it to control your ipod then you are going to have to save up and spend a bit more. Halfords sell $hit i wouldnt touch anything they sell. Stick to CAD an CAS.

 

[Little Butch]

The two that I2EBORN posted are the price I'm wanting to pay, I don't want to plug my Ipod In, It's my Phone (SonyEriccson) that I want to plug In but I guess they're sort of the same?
