Which of these HU’s to get

[Mauwzer]

Firstly, which ones can you get adaptors for that enable you to retain the stalk AND central display?

Secondly, which are regarded as being the best for sound quality? Im thinking of these possibilites, but really I just want high SQ with mp3 playback.

Sony XF7700:

Alpine CDA 9812 (If I got this, which colour goes best with Clios -- black or silver)

Ive got the silver 9815 (practically the same model) and its lovely - looks wicked in my Dynamique too!!

Ive got the F7700 and Im pleased with it. Went for Sony because I had the adaptor for stalk and display. (http://www.connects2.comwww.connects2.com) - DRNS003. Only things I dont like with it are the silver surround I got (which I changed for a black one) and the fact that some of the controls can only be used with the IR remote.

Not sure about the other units but F7700 is a quality piece of kit for 200 quid (http://www.mcsdirect.co.ukwww.mcsdirect.co.uk).
