Stereo Recommenation

I'm looking to buy a deck with USB input for my FD (non-Bose). Do any of you guys/gals have any recommendations? Something up to $300-$400, but cheaper is better .

I've been looking at the Kenwood Excelon line and the Sony CDX-GT610UI.

Thanks in advance for any input.

Kenwood is the best. Go for it.

There is a new kenwood unit with a USB dongle in the rear of the unit which you could run and have remote usb access without having it hanging off of the front of the unit. I think they run about $250 to $300.

I was just in the audio store the other day and I saw a Clarion with a USB port coming out of the face. Pretty cool. FWIW, Clarion made the stock, OEM stereos for the 1st gen RX-7.

Kenwood makes pretty good head units, but they're far from the best.

Hey, thanks for all the info. I ended up going with a Kenwood Excelon KDC-X590 with a USB cable run into the glove box.

Got it pretty cheap and I've been happy with the deck so far, all the features seem to work.
