Hi;

I am looking for a car stereo that will allow me to play CDs with MP3 Files, XM radio, and have blue tooth so I can answer my phone through it. Could you please recommend some manufacturers and item numbers if such a product exists?

Thanks
Pat

Don't know if this is of any help as we don't have xm radio yet but JVC and pioneer have good units with the options you need so does sony but.....LOL

Certainley I would stay away from the Alpine line. Although I feel the headunits are some of the best as far as looks, features, and iPod integration, the bluetooth unit is trash. I have a shelf full of them, due to horrid echo issues. Alpine is set to release a new kit in August.

I have had sucess with Pioneer and JVC, but I am not too keen on the JVC functionality with iPod interface and the Bluetooth sofware sucks. I have had a few come back because of phone incompatability.
