Rockford Fosgate makes the easiest to use mp3 player ive seen yet it show the file name of the song and displays about 15-20 letters of filename so it is easy to find the song you are looking for all the other mp3 players ive dealt with are in numbers only when searching
ive had a pioneer deck for a while and no problems yet. also alpine is good as well. looks like everyone seems to be sayin the same thing....i think its good advice
pioneer, alpine, and panasonic make some great mp3 head units. alpines tend to run more expensive though. pioneers are great, and one of their biggest appeals is their oel displays. one bad thing to note about pioneer is that they spend a little more time tracking between mp3 songs than other brands. it doesn't bother most people, but my panasonic skips between songs much faster.
