Im sick up putting in CD's everytime i want to hear a song.
Looking for a good looking head unit that matches the car. Something sleek and not way to flashy.
Ebay only has the Pioneer DEH-P90HDD on there right now. I dont care for the looks of it.
I'd like to hear anyones input on what they think a nice MP3 reciever with hard drive is.
Looking for a high watts per channel 45x4 and up and Ease of use if i want to select a song and finding a song.
if youre dead set on HDD, but cant find a player tha tlooks good I know theres externals like a cd changer that you control from your head unit, uses a cartridge system.. kenwood has one I belive
and I think alpine does too but might be a din unit cant remeber

thanks for the heads up ex.. I just was looking at Kenwoods set up. Yeah it looks like 250 for a Kenwood external and a SONY CDX-M3DI CD/MP3 reciever for 425 bucks. Comes out to a little less than the Sonys hard drive MP3 player... and looks better imo.
heres what the reciever looks like

Watcha yuh think about that set up.. I'll be running stock bose speakers for now. 5 self amplified speakers. Sound great for a stock system. Probably better with a good head unit.
I dont belive that the mp3 changer will be controllabel by the HU fyi
and *i may be wrong here* but that the bose self amplified speakers arent capable of taking amplified speaker level in.. I've neve rdealth with it, maybe they hav eadapters or maybe you have to bypass the amps

Yeah the bose has a PAC adapter i can buy to run the speakers with the HU... Im not sure about the compatibility of the HU with the kenwood keg but i thought on one of the ebay descriptions it said that it was compatible. Guess the keg is really small to which is nice.
