    so right now i have a sony receiver and it works... just not as well as i would like so i have been looking at upgrades, so far these are the only 2 i am liking. i kinda want bluetooth, with more than one output.
    JVC - 50W x 4 MOSFET Apple® iPod®-/HD Radio-Ready Digital Media Receiver - KDX50BT

    Pioneer - 50W x 4 MOSFET Apple® iPod®-/Satellite Radio-/HD-Ready In-Dash CD Deck - DEH-P8400BH

    Kenwood - 50W x 4 MOSFET Apple® iPod®-Ready CD Deck with Built-In Bluetooth - KDC-BT652U

    so what do you think about those? some of them say "OEM steering wheel controls" i wonder if i would still need an adapter ?

    anyways, if you have other suggestions feel free

    i am really leaning towards the JVC. but the pioneer has more outputs lolol

    Yes you still need an adapter to make your factory steering wheel controls work.

    I personally don't reccomend any of those 3, and I also don't reccomend buying from best buy.

    Well I have a $200 limit.

    I only used Best Buy's webpage because the info is straight forward.

    Pioneer DEH-P9400BH In-Dash Car Stereo w/ Bluetooth and HD Radio this is a nice unit in my opinion... barely out of your range, but seems to meet your criteria.

    One still slow and loud... other one scoots just a bit.

    They threw the jvc in my OP on 50% off so I just dropped the $50 for It. The volume button on my other receiver was going downhill rapidly anyways lol

    When I get my new car I will definitely be looking at that Pioneer or other JVC.

    The JVC in the OP is really similar to the one you mentioned. It just lacks a CD player lol

    Refurbished In-Dash Double DIN DVD, CD, MP3 Receiver with 4.5" Touchscreen Monitor and Built-in Bluetooth

    It's a refurb but for the price was insanely right.

    Thanks to REDCOMPG for the link to Car Audio Stereo - Car Subwoofers - Car Amplifiers and Speakers

    I wasn't really looking for a new deck but it looks like my 03 Bonneville is going to get an upgrade. Or maybe my 04 GTP will get the JVC swapped out of it.
