i would say your better off choosing one of the pioneer, kenwood or jvc decks

but i guess u cant really go wrong with the features of the clarion deck

Clarion use to be good, not sure if it still is. I have a old clarion head unit from the early 90''s and I love it.

ive been searching all the kenwoods that i could find in the online market. none of them have the audio streaming via bluetooth. the adapter doesnt have that function either.

i might get the clarion but i havent heard much about the brand, so im kinda iffy about it
