there's so many to choose from, pioneer's avic-z1, alpine's w200 and other models, and also eclipses... for those of you who are experienced with aftermarket nav systems and such, which one would you choose and why?

im considering in getting the avic-z1 myself, seems pretty impressive, but is that the best one out?

also it must have built in 3way/active xover mode built in, because i'm running my components actively...

i hope it will be an easy fit into my DD dashkit without any modifications or such...

 

all great units but the ipod inter face on alpine is the best especially the w200

 

does it have built in 3way/active xover?

 

I would take the AVIC-Z1 personally. I just ordered one and plan on getting the XM with NavTraffic, iPod adapter, etc. I have always had a good experience with Pioneer in previous cars and their accessories work flawlessly in my opinion. Just make sure that whatever you get is warrantied because I have had one deck fry on me in the past and had to get it fixed.

I don't think it does, you will need the PXA-H701 to adjust it. Or get an audio control equalizer
