cheap double DIN radios...?

IIRC Kenwood was bought by JVC a few years ago.

I find JVC stuff to have not very intuitive control interfaces.
Not sure if that has festered over to the Kenwood line yet.

Our boy put a JVC unit in the wife's car whaile he was driving it and neither one of us can figure out how to use some of the features that should be super easy to do (and the boy and I are computer network guys).

I've found a certain model of Pioneer (also not the biggest Pioneer fan, but pickin's are gittin' slim), that has a reasonably intuitive interface and level adjustments for the inputs. (I HATE all the units that have the aux or USB input way lower than the CD or tuner).

I just bought a third unit in an attempt to standardize across all my vehicles, and I'd love to get another for the wife's car. With all the crap they do, especially search a large MP3 library, the menu can get really complicated.

Just an FYI- the factory Mopar 1970-1974 cassette recorder "pods" are in fact, DIN width and 1.5 DIN height.

.....if you can find one.....and afford it.
