A female neighbor of mine wants me to install an after-market receiver in her '94 Accord EX, mainly because she wants one that can play CDs, instead of casette tapes. Crutchfield's carries a bunch of models that would satisfy that spec but I would like to get her one that has a few other features as well that the old factory model lacks. Such as HD AM/FM radio, USB and aux inputs, as long as the cost is under $150.
I found 3 models on the Crutchfield site that fit the bill and I wonder if any of you happen to use one of them and could give me a feedback. I'm kinda' undecided on which one I should get. One thing the reviews don't talk much about is the simplicity of handling the controls. I found from my own experience that they can be pretty complex and hard to remember.
Here are the 3 models I am looking at right now:
Kenwood KDC-HD552U, Kenwood Excelon KDC-X596, and Pioneer DEH-X5500HD.
