Best deck in the $500-$600 range

[Guest]

PM me for pricing on car pc's. There are lots of options depending on what hardware you get with the car pc.

If you want a CD Player, you might try this:

Offering 24-Bit D/A converter, a high-powered MOSFET amplifier, Clarion's Optimedia display technology, a 4.2-inch full-color TFT display, and an attractive stainless steel faceplate, the DXZ855MP really does look as good as it sounds. Loaded with sound enhancement features, such as Clarion's ADF compressed-audio enhancer, and 2-band parametric EQ, the DXZ855MP is a unit that puts you in control of your sound. For easy system expansion, try a 4-volt/6-channel line level output. This is a source unit that truly does it all.

OK, I've got a few options now. I need one more thing . Whats a good asking price for my old deck?

It's a Kenwood excelon in dash dvd, it's about 3-4 years old.
This is the only pic I have and it works perfect.

I'm not actually trying to sell it right now, I'm just trying to get a little feedback. If/when I do decide I'll post it up in the classifieds section.

Do you mean trade one of the new cd/dvd players that I/tjamz showed straight up for the kenwood deck? If that is what you mean, I would have to say no go from us... This deck is retailed around $575-$600 for the JVC, and you deck IMO being 3-4 yrs old is prolly on its last leg..... But I will put the word out for anyone that wants a inexpensive flip out.....
