what do you guys think of this head unit for my 02?

i think the flip-out keypad thing looks out-of-place, buuuuut when the face is up i think it looks pretty stealth, and doesnt throw the whole 'look' of the interior. . . any recommendations for a new receiver?

There is a good friend of mine who has won awards up and down the East coast (I live in Upstate NY) in car stereo competitions. This is not your average schmuck with the Honda Civic that Mom and Dad gave him, into which he proceeded to install two 12 inch sub woofers so he could make the sheet metal rattle. I'm talking systems that sound better than any home system I've heard and you can't see any of speakers in the car. We've had this conversation about head units and we agree that S*ny and others spend their money on gadgets (like flip out key pads) rather then good electronics, unless you spend the big bucks for their top of the line stuff. Nakamichi is the shit. I have a lower end (cheap, like $300) unit in my Tacoma and love it. Simple to operate, VERY clean sound, even with stock speakers, although I've got my eye on a set of MB Quart separates.

If you want gadgets and gizzmos, go with some of the stuff like the picture you posted. If you want a good a head unit for playing music, look at the Nakamichi stuff.

And thats, my two cents worth.
