JVC: KD-SHX851, any one got got one?

Well, thinking of splashing out on a new head unit, thought this one looks pretty good?

JVC: KD-SHX851

Any one got/used one? Any other recommendations?

Spec wise it looks very good  :cool:

However I surpose it depends what your looking to do with the whole system and if your looking to install better speakers, amps, subs, etc???

Cool, think i'll treat myself to one then!!!

I've already got a Vibe black box 4 channel amp, stealth sub enclosure and sub and some Rainbow components in Audioscape door pods.

The only thing I would bear in mind mate is that its an older unit, 2005 model, they did it in silver in 2004 if I remember right, if you look at the bottom of the page it also tells you when it was added to theyre website and that was 2005 too, hense the 2005 year model.

Its a good unit if I remember right and looks nice, quite smooth. It was only in the audio board so I never really messed about with it much but it was more higher end spec, just check around to see price comparisons pending the age of the model  :wink: but otherwise seems nice.
