1. don't get sony everyone says they break down.
2. Proper installation accounts for half of your sound quality. The winning and intermitten spearker problems are due to sloppy wiring.
3. Get a car stereo shop to do the installation if you dont know how to do it.
4. I bought a JVC headunit a couple of months ago and I've been very happy. mp3 feature is a must.

Pioneer has the best sound quality.
I've in my car a DEH-P3500 MP3 cd player and it works very well!, I saw the DEH- P7550 MP3 but was too expensive however if you can buy it. This model is in the top of Pioneer cd players. It has movie cartoons on the screen and a lot of functions. Go to Pioneer MP3's!
thanks for the feedback. I'm pretty much set on pioneer for the brand, as I can get very good prices on them. sounds like they have a pretty good reputation. From talking to salesmen, they seem to say that unless you're going with amps and subs and the like, there's not a lot between performance in the models, so just go with the feature list. Deinately thinking about also getting the TSC series speakers as well, they add a lot to the sound for not that much extra cost

If you're going to spend money on anything- spend it on the speakers.
I have infinity reference series 6.5 seperates. Very nice speakers. only about $190 per set.
Running off a 5 channel Alpine amp with 1 10" sub.
Definitely get an mp3 player though- saves you major money on CD's I burn about 6-8 sets on one cd and listen to those for a week or so- then burn the next weeks sets. I have the Pioneer MP3. Fairly inexpensive- Mine was $159 and it came with a remote!
