i thought that and i nearly got the alpine unit, in the end i went for a pioneer and i started feeling like i had made a mistake as the alpine looked nicer with the colour screen etc... untill a mate who is a dj got in my car with a cd and wanted to play it, i get given alot of cd's at events or for promotion etc... so i need a cd player and i know i could of got a multichanger but thats more money and effort.
