Hello all,
Well it is time to upgrade that God-awful Blaupunkt factory head unit in my car. The thing frustrates me to no end.
In my search for a new head unit, I had a few important criteria.
First: It has to be able to "random all disc" function. I want it to play randomly between folders and the entire disc while playing a MP3 disc. (That criteria was a lot harder to forfill than I thought)
Second: Easy of navigation of MP3 files and folders
Pretty much every head unit that plays MP3's will do what I want from it so the above 2 criteria were important in my decision.
What do you guys think about this head unit: KENWOOD KDCX790
I found it at Crutchfield for $350 out the door with all the required accessories to install.
I also found the stand alone head unit for $235 out the door w/o the accessores at Shopdog.com
If I bought the accesorries (wire harness, face adaptor, antenna adaptor,etc) at Crutchfield, they would be $50 out the door. (For a total of $285 if I ordered from both crutchfield and shopdog.)
Second question, has anyone ever bought anything from Shopdog.com? I called thier customer support line and a live person answered within a minute and they had a good rating at epinions.com
I would really love some feedback on the kenwood head unit. I really want to make sure I am getting my money's worth whichever way I decide to order.
Thanks for all your help,
Jojo
