Thread: Which head unit is better for me??

I'm putting out feelers to start to look for a new head unit. I'm still rocking the stocker..........and I think it's time for a change.

My requirements:

DVD player

Sound better than stock

Keep steering wheel controls functional

Play music from HD and/or Ipod

$300 or less



Now, there are two of them up for sale that I was looking at:

JVC KD-NX5000 DVD/navigation receiver at Crutchfield.com

or

Kenwood Excelon KVT-717DVD DVD/CD player with 7" video screen at Crutchfield.com

Which one of those would fit my needs better? Or do you have another suggestion?
