Can anyone suggest a good head unit for use with and ipod. I currently have an iTrip which doesnt really offer the best sound quality. I am looking for something that allows me to control my ipodfrom teh head unit

sony gt300 mate thats what i've got quite new stereo and got all the toys for around £100.

anyone else know of any ipod head units?

hi mate i think most of the new ones out are all compatiable!!

Whta ya could do is phone some place out of max power and ask them there ideas etc. thats what i did.

cheers

cheers, think you are the only one listening to me!!! Quite like your unit but am looking for something that will give me the same kind of display as on the ipod

hiya mate

Currently have got an apline unit in mine which comes ready for an ipod etc. got it for £200 from halfords reduced from £250 and i love it. good sound etc although not sure of a head unit about which includes the same display to the ipod?? With my alpine unit you can still access all your playlists and songs from the head unit but just using the skip buttons like you world a normally cd etc

Hope thats some good for you bud!

got any pics? Is it quite easy to navigate throught the menus with the skip buttons? Is just that my ipod is full so would take a long time to scroll through to an artist at the end of the alphabet if i had to press the skip button each time!!

Have a look in the for sale part of the site, my pioneers a cracking unit and im sure that this is ipod compatible

I have also been looking for a replacement Headnit that is compatible with an iPod. I was going to go with an Alpine however, my brother works for the Sony Centre and has told me of this unit Sony are about to release early July:

Has a built in 1Gig memory so should hold more than enough tracks and as my bro works for Sony I can take advantage of his staff discount

Hi, im looking to get the JVC KD-AVX1.. Not 100% sure if it has head unit control of the song list but chk this link to see what you think.. I've been looking for a while, and I just prefer this one

Hope this helps mate.. I've just checked, the spec shows direct track access, and I think this is what you want..

Hi mate,

I've just had a pioneer head unit fitted, it came with a little box that the auto electrician fitted behind the head unit, from the box comes an iPod cable, same as the one used to connect your iPod to your PC, he ran the cable into my glove box. So my iPod sits in my glove box and you can control it from the head unit. Displays song titles, artists all the usual iPod stuff, but on the head unit display. It has loads of other options as well but I only got it put in last week and have yet to figure them all out, I'm happy that I've found the shuffle song option!! But all in all a very impresive piece of kit.

what model is the head unit?
