What's the opinion on Blaupunkt's newest head units the Seattle and Los Angeles? Look like some nice numbers and features.

    I don't think Blau has made a quality product since the 80's when you could find them in Porsches. Yet another company that went downhill after going to Best Buy. God, they kill everything don't they?

    I know, had one in an Audi I had back then with a pretty sweet old system. Always been enamored by them and the German mystic. Crutchfield no longer carries them, that kind of scares me?

    I bought a head unit for my gfriend's car last year.
    THEY SUCK period.
    Build quality is crappy,sound quality is non existant.
