although I can't afford one now (will the SVX repair cycle ever take a holiday), when the time comes I'll go with a Nakamichi unit. they are well understated in appearance and have a long term audiophile reputation. try their site under mobile audio and look at the 35/40/45 series. I've seen the 35 for as little as 200 bucks. I'm holding out for the 45 series - about $330 on the net.

P.S. I meant offer to trade someone on the forum a part of equivalent value from your parts car for their CD unit & see if anybody was willing.
