Default 2007 Z Need new headunit recommendations

Just purchased an Enthusiast model, but definately want to upgrade the sound system. What are some recommended h/u models that will work without too much trouble. Don't need navi or video. Bluetooth would be nice though. Also any ideas on speakers as well.
Thanks!
Ed

I wouldn't invest too heavily in the bluetooth feature, sometimes it's really hit or miss. The other half of the connection is your phone (Palm Treo phone owners please chime in).

But I agree with the other folks, Pioneer makes some good single din bluetooth units. Personally I use an Avic Z1 with an unlocked Motorola Rizr and the performance is great and all the features work. Although people that call me when I'm in the car do complain about the echo they hear.

As for speakers, the stock ones with a headunit will be good enought i have no complaints whatsoever they are good enough for me.
