Whats the best aftermarket indash Navigation system?

Are there any aftermarket in-dash navigation system that is better than the factory one that comes with the g35?

I plan on getting one. Preferably a 2DIN indash nav/cd/dvd all in one unit, can someone suggest me what the best one is?

Another problem is that i find it rare to find one that has built in active 3way xover... my alpine 9833 has it, but i cannot find any other headunit with this feature. I need this because i am not using the passive xovers that come with my components. I am bypassing those and are wiring the tweets and mids directly to the amp and using the built in 3way active crossover built into my headunit.

Do any of the new indash navs have this feature?

You can go with either a Alpine IVA-W205 or Alpine IVA-W505 along with the Alpine H701 processor to get that result.

H701 is WAY beyond what is needed, but it sure can do the job, though can get tricky. 151 bands is plenty. The 205 and the 505 will require you to purchase the Blackbird II. I have the Blackbird I and it's pretty good, don't need it so I'm selling. The blackbird II does have more channels for the satellite to connect to, so it will perform better. If you get the Alpine W200 and use the h701, I have all the connections for the Blackbird I, the dock, etc. Not trying to make a sale, just giving you options. Personally, I wouldn't go with the w205 because it doesn't have a graphic EQ. The 505 looks super sexy and the Blackbird II will outperform the Blackbird I. As far as other brands, I'd check into Eclipse. I believe they usually have some good head units that have 3 - 7 bands of EQ.
