Yeah but you have to get TWO 2GB SD cards and the updates are a !#%@% to find without having to pay pioneer for them. Regardless I truly believe I would have been better off with a newer 3200 or 4200 AVH

How cheap? The p series joints are pretty good for the price. No nav, though as far i know. Shouldn't be much of a concern since all of us have gps on our phones. If your car has a bose system, the stock amp will more than likely need to be bypassed and it's gonna sound pretty bad.

I have come to the conclusion that I have no idea what to get when it come to car audio
right now I only have a 12" rocksford fosgate powered sub....what do y'all think I should get next if I just want it to sound good? which head unit and what kind of amp? I have a 2001 GMC Jimmy btw if that helps...
This would be a nice setup.

It is feature packed so that is a plus. I got mine for 400 about a year ago and have had it installed since last summer.

any thoughts/experiences on the pioneer AVIC-F900BT head unit?
Alpine has the best sound quality
Kenwood has the best navigation
Pioneer has the best gui + ipod control
Pick your poison.
Nah with the pioneer deck they don't drop to much in price when a upgraded unit comes out. That's because when the z130bt come out the z110 and 120 will get updates the be the same as the z130. (right now the you can upgrade a z110 to a 120 and it's the same thing). I know that the z130bt is getting some cool new features like HD radio and traffic but you can do that on the others. This is all IMO of course.

After much research I finally ordered a DD unit. That being SONY XAV-70BT. Once I get it I can start with my install.

No. 99% of them are complete idiots. 2 amps is all you need.
