I just bought a new car with a dire stereo. Music is important to me, and am looking to buy a new system, but cannot decide for the life of me what to get!! The issue being my budget is very tight. I can get some good deals on ebay, but was wondering if anyone could recommend a brand, or model to get if one comes up on ebay?
Many thanks.

I've got an Alpine CDA-9835R in mine,it sounds nice and has ample power without an added amp plus when funds allow you can hook up an i-pod adaptor.In my experience leave the budget makes alone (Goodmans,Roadstar etc) the price might be attractive but they sound cr*p

If and when you get a new head unit, replace your speakers. Do not rely on the original ones, they will be rubbish.


Good makes are Sony, Kenwood, Alpine and Clarion. A good deal can be had at Charlie Browns type places, I have seen a JVC CD/FM radio for �80 in there. You should really be looking at spending �50-60 on the speakers as well. The downside to ebay is lack of guarentee possibly

Check out Justkenwood.co.uk it should have everything you need. Prices are very good too.
There's a good reason why you see Alpine installed in some of the world's best cars. They are to be seen on e-bay continually but seldom go for peanuts. Both my cars, and my son's and daughter's and my dad's I've fitted various Alpines in and they even sound pretty good throughthe standard speakers. The latest models (and there are many) do MP3 and iPod connections but this means that there's plenty of last year's ones around at reasonable prices. They also tend to be well made and don't fall apart after a few month's use.
