I am looking to buy a CD/Mp3 Head Unit and thought I would see what everyone thought. It needs to have a remote so that I can still use the controls on my steering wheel. I was thinking about Alpine or Sony. What do yall think? 2003 GMC Yukon Houston, TX ------------- Mr Hexed

go with an alpine either 9813 or 9815 both are cd/mp3 cabable and alpine in my opinion makes the best hedunits. they are easy to use and reliable

Thanks for you opinion. I Have had Alpine before and it did a great job, But I have been out of the game with this stuff so long I don't know what's good anymore. I was thinking about the Alpine 9827 ------------- Mr Hexed

Eclipse makes excellent head-units. They come with a remote but not a steering remote control, but you can't pass up these head-unit's excellent sound quality.

I don't think the Alpine 9827 has the stealth face but it is still sweet looking. I have not been able to find an Eclipse with Remote, they are hard to find for some reason. I need a website that I can look at, that has a big selection of them to choose from. ------------- Mr Hexed

The CDA-9827 looks decent and you should be able to get it at a good price. You might want to look at spending a little more and picking up the 9813, you would gain an integrated crossover and time correction. The built in crossover is awesome, I have the 9815 which is just one step up from the 9813 and I absolutely love it. I saw the 9813 on sale at circuit city for $299 which is a good price, look into it.

If you want to look at eclipse try their website. They are better then alpine if you want sound quality. Eclipse
