Audiobahn Headunits

Like any brand, some offerings are better than others.  A few companies have such consistently high quality that buying on name brand alone is usually a good bet.  Many companies have such consistently low quality that avoiding them based on name brand alone is usually a good bet.  But even they offer an occasionally good quality product.  Unfortunately Audiobahn falls into the latter category.  They have made a name for themselves by a huge marketing and sponsorship push, low prices with seemingly great specs, enhanced visual appeal, and an occasionally good product.

From what I have been able to determine, Audiobahn head units are designed in Taiwan and manufactured in China by the same company who makes Audiovox, Jensen, Rampage, Prestige, Pursuit, Lanzar, Recotron, Profile, Kraco and others.  They may be fine, I have never listened to them.

The earlier suggestion of Blaupunkt as a good quality low-cost alternative was very sound IMO.
