I normally buy Pioneer, but I really liked this one: http://www.kenwoodusa.com/Car_Entert...ideo/KIV-BT901

I got it along with a Modifry DCI and it works and sounds great. I didn't want something with a CD Player because I'd never use it, so I looked for something with more features pertaining to digital media.

If you're not that savvy with audio equipment (or even if you are), I'd recommend looking into which head units work with Modifry's Pnp harness. The harness makes installing the head unit and DCI a snap. It used to be only available for Alpine but I think there's at least one more make these days. Head unit can easily be swapped out in a few minutes with no soldering, cutting, splicing, etc.

I also use the Modifry adapter by far the easiest and best option out there. All the universal ones are a pain to program. If you want to order a Headunit online I recommend sonicelectronix. Com they have the cheapest prices around as well as free shipping.

Go with Pioneer, I just bought an excellent unit at Best buy for around $100 a few weeks ago, it has CD Player, USB connection for IPod or Iphone, Aux connection, Pandora Capability and 2 outputs exits for amp and sub.

The previous owner had a Kenwood head unit but the sound was not as clear.

I own a 2006 AP2, my audio set up is the following: Pionner head unit, one 4 channel amp, one amp for the sub, a sub and component speakers on the doors. My sound is just awesome. I had similar setup on my prior S, a 2002 AP1.
