Message	if you like. I like it. Can't comment on Kenwood since I have no experience there. And since you don't have a need for iPod connectivity or other peripherals, then it probably doesn't matter much - just whatever interface appeals to YOU. I just went shopping for head unit for my beater and was surprised to find that the bottom-of-the-line Sony offers iPod connectivity and control from the HU (with purchase of an extra cable), XM, MP3 playback, and even has an aux out on the front. I haven't installed it to see how it sounds yet, but really, I'm just surprised to see a cheap radio have so many features. AND it doesn't have a flip-out face to get the CD in - just a slot, which appeals to me in the less-moving-parts-to-break category. You don't have to live in a bubble just because someone else caught the flu. Make your decision on your ability to trust yourself. - NytWolf 15:49:05 12/17/06 I was previously a aviation mechanic and avionic technician and this car is harder to work on than Aircraft. - Hocuz77 03:04:56 02/28/06
