i can get either for rather cheap but dont know which...i like the idea of the 2nd one being touch screen but the 1st one looks nicer.

I want to stick with JVC as i have always used their headunits, had one pioneer once wasnt impressed.

Any pro's cons of either? my current jvc has pics and stuff on but i like the idea of being able to load them on with these 2

and i know these 2 have been out for ages, but i dont want to spunk loads of cash on something brand new, my last one was £320 and now my priorities have changed and dont want to be spending loads on ice.

Chances are that the features that a higher end headunit give you over a lower priced one are features that you wont use or need. Spend less on a headunit and power on amps and speakers.

Rememeber audio means listen not look!

You dont have them so spend less on the headunit and buy a amp and better speakers that way you will get a much greater system uprade for your money.

Theres no point having a fancy headunit and running crap speakers off it.
