I have the previous version and love it. Blows the doors off the Becker.
I chose it because:
- HD Radio built in; many stations now broadcast in HD.
- iPod & USB inputs on the face
- bluetooth connectivity
- illumination can easily be set to very closely match the factory dash lights, giving it a more factory look
Do your upgrades step-wise. I had big ideas for my system, but ultimately only did the head unit and dash speakers. |
I really like the idea of having a pop up screen with SAT NAV and a DVD player for when I'm waiting for someone, but the question is will it fit into the footprint of the standard Becker unit?
I'd like to be able to plug my Iphone in and have it charge, or be able to use handsfree with Bluetooth, since talking on the phone whilst driving a manual isn't ideal.
But then again, I could buy something at this price point, and buy a nice amp or some speakers, I'm really not sure.
