What head unit?

[XB70]

Please move to another area if more appropriate.

I am looking for a head unit that has:

- front loading CD
- can run an IPOD
- Bluetooth would be great
- sound quality
- not "flashy"

The Beckers would have been perfect but no longer in production and Alpine seem to do a selection but I know pretty much nil on car audio so any recommendations would be great

Thank in advance

Single or double din?
Budget?

I've got an Alpine CDE-103BT that ticks all those boxes.

Got one of these and it's spot on.

Thanks all

Single DIN

Budget - would not want to go past £300 I suppose (you seem to be able to get a lot more value for money now than a few years ago!)

The Alpine and Kenwood referenced above seem good - will have to do research on both.

Cheers

Hmmm, are the Kenwood BT40U / BT50U / BT60U any good?

CD player has packed up in the Mazda and fancy something different from the Alpine I have in the other car. They seem to check all the boxes and are much cheaper than the Alpine - BT60U looks really swish (rear USB as well) and only £150 from caraudiodirect. BT40U only just over a hundred, but not sure of the differences...
