Well,

there are a lot of threads about this head unit in particular and stereo stuff in this forum. I would suggest just lurking and reading through the threads in here and finding out what you want. most people have probably already asked what you want to know

 

Where is the cheapest place to get this hu?

 

you have to import it, it's going to set you back ~700.00 either way. meltingpot.com is a good way to go.

 

I agree with you. The Sony is a nice unit. But, I can't believe they left out the MP3 decoder. They are still stuck on thier dying MD format. It's pretty big in Japan. But, it never took off like they thought over here. I';; probably go with the Kenwod myself. I really don't want to find "something" to fill the other DIN with.



And if I'm going to spend $800 on a deck, it better blow me while I watch a DVD and/or listen to MP3/WM at the same time!!!

You are right about the Japanese market being a bit f'd up. I am facinated with Japan and have done a bunch of research into the culture. I plan on taking a long vacation there in 2005.

Anyways, here is the thing about the Japanese. They NEED to feel like they have products that are only theirs. Which is why the "full" product line never gets released . . . its not meant to. Any company in Japan that makes electronics has products that are "japanese market only."

Its a culture thing.

But oh yeah that is one sweet HU.
