If moneys no object then i would always suggest rockford fosgate if not then alpine is always a good and safe bet

Id suggest the above for headunits as for amps id go for punch as ive only ever read good things about them

If all else fails theres always the old reliable and top value for money JBL, you can pick up there 12" subs that are a 1000watts for about ?30

Well im happy with my jvc exad touchscreen unit. It does everything i need to including mp3's. Jvc are pretty crap on there low end units compared to Alpine equivelants but there top end stuff is damn good imo

Are you after one with a built in hard drive though or one to play mp3 cd's?

Most head units will play mp3s nowadays even the low budget end of the market.

I payed a ?110 for my kenwood kdc-w4531 after a ?20 discount for my van and that plays mp3s etc so shop around people.

I'm thinking of getting a Blaupunkt Woodstock DAB54 like this one

http://www.bluespot.co.uk/stock/woodstock_dab54.asp

As you can see it plays mp3 but also has a DAB tuner as well as FM/AM.

MP3 HU's have been around for a few years now and are getting quicker load up times. Alpine are 1 of the leading brands out at the moment for MP3's but the new Vieta will be coming out this month which has it all. (Pioneer internals) Vieta have been in the game for over 30 years! so they aint crap. This unit has Blue Tooth (upto 7 phones) MP3,CD,CDR,CDRW and a fronf loading USB port so that you can play your music from a Usb stick and record onto it. This unit will be around the ?250 mark
