I've been running a panasonic for a few years now. Its got the Sirius interface built in (not the FM modulated one) and I love it. Its got front, rear, and sub pre-amp outs.. The sub-pre amp out really helped improve the sub definition instead of using the crossover in the amp.
I've got it hooked into a Lightning Audio Strike S600.4 and a Lighting Bolt S200.2. The Sub is a 10" Kenwood.
My only complaint, is that even with the dimmer set to lowest level, the thing can still blind you at night lol.

Ok, well, I ended up getting a Kenwood Excelon XXV-01D....well, its on layaway.
One really nifty feature is the fact that it can measure the g-forces when you turn.
Now I need an amp.....any suggestions there?

Pioneer Headunits are about the only thing i will buy from pioneer, their subs suck IMO. That is why i have JL Audio Subs and Amplifiers. I am not a competition music person, but when i want it loud, they play loud and clear. If i ever want to do some mild competition I will just buy some W7 woofers and go from there.

Most people who I've shown coparitively priced stuff from clarion, kenwood or panasonic have dropped pioneer (for teh money you can get better sound and more features)JL has a wonderfull ad company, but they are not as great as people think
