I'll second the Alpines. Best quality I've heard - even after using it for 4 years. I used to have a Kenwood unit with the face that would flip around to "hide" it when you shut the car off. It was poorly engineered and really flimsy - always worried about it. I've since learned that keeping it simple is best for car audio. Alpine is simple enough and they sound great. See if you can get a refurb so you can get more features than the base model.
