Looking for new headunit
well it all started last sunday when i picked up this alpine for 175.99 at bestbuy
alpine cda-9856
i was under the assumption it had a remote, but it didnt....so i took it back
now i'm looking at the pioneer deh-5800mp from crutchfield for 179.99
http://www.crutchfield.com/*-g9MYFZv...0&I=130DEHP580
what do you guys think of this headunit? i plan to keep stock speakers at the moment since almost everyone recommends to change the headunit out first..

As long as it has the features I would be looking for
