I am about the least qualified person to recommend a stereo, but I do have
a suggestion to make. When choosing among the head units with a remote, be
sure to get a remote that will actually TURN OFF the head unit so you don't
have to get out of bed to save your battery for morning. When I was
shopping for one, not all of them would do that.
