I've had a Rocford/Fosgate RFX-9400 for a few years now. I got it for it's MP3 ability and bought it cheap on line. While it sounds good the MP3 ability sucks. You need to burn disks at 12x but not all burners will work. It only reads a few disks that I've bought and then it's picky as all hell. It will never play song #31, I don't get this at all. It pops during playback which I think is the emulsion layer thing. So I got fed up with it and went on the hunt for a new cheap head unit.
My criteria was as follows:
MP3 ability
high output, no amps going on this thing
flip down face to help keep out dirt
no glamour display, something simple
sub output
oh and did I mention cheap, well reasonably cheap.
Went hunting on EBay last night and got this unit
Kenwood KDC-X589
Pretty much fills the bill, hopefully it will sound reasonably well.
