Hey guys, need some recommendations and advice.

 

Just need a simple replacement for my sound system's head unit. It's a Blaupunkt MP-74. It's screwed.

I'm a total newbie. So I don't know what size/specs of head units to replace my Blaupunkt MP74. Neither do I know how to install one. That's why i need the help of you experts here. :) Desperately need your help.

 

I'm looking for a decent one with the following minimum features:

- FM Radio

- Mp3 playback capability

- USB port / Aux-In

- iPod/iPhone compatability a plus

- Budget: less than $250

- Must be new. Of course

- Place to purchase helps with installation?

 

No need for remote. No need screen. Very chin chai. My car's Bose speakers and woofer are good enough for me.

 

So questions are:

 

1) Any brand and model recommendations?

2) Where's the best place(s) - in terms of price, service and reliability - to find the respective brand/model head unit?

 

Thank you so much for enduring my noob-ness. :)

honestly with your budget you are better off keeping the blaupunkt as its most probably a better hu than a cheapo 250 one outside. if u have around $500 plus i recommend pioneer p80 or alpine 9887

Top up $30 more, and you can get an export set Pioneer DEH-7250SD from Hollywood Sound Lab from Upp Bukit Timah near Mindef. 1 year warranty provided by Hollywood Sound Lab themselves. Do a google for the specs. The 7250SD matches your requirements.
