im looking into buying the end all of stereo heads and aside from being made in china this head appears to do everything http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Touch...fAudioQ5fVideo

has anyone ever used one of these... im already assuming the output will be poor from the stereo channels but i theory the rca outs should be clean and i planned on amping all my speakers anyway. suggestions would be great

never heard of it. For a couple hundred dollars more, I'd just stick with a name brand - pioneer, eclipse, clarion, kenwood, alpine, etc... but that's just me

sedakai,
Do what you will but it has been my experience when dealing with the ebay radios that when we install them (does not matter the brand on them, just the cheap import radios) that we have numerous unexpected issues. The last one that came in a few months ago sounded fine on the radio but when you went to SD, USB, CD/DVD it would sound like the chipmunks singing. It seems the processor could not determine the right playback speed. I have had them be too physically deep to fit in the dash with out major modifications, or even too tall or wide to work right.

If you look at the JVC radios or Kenwood they have all the features you are asking about but also WORK consistently. You will pay more but they work and sound good. Those companies put ALOT of time and resources to make them user friendly and reliable.

to me i like to have products that work, sound good (including the bluetooth), have support that i can reach out to if needed, support for warranty repair if every needed.
