What do you recommend?
A single CD player or a CD changer ?

I have a single CD(Sony) player in the car.but there's an old CD changer in the boot and it's not working.
And since the headunit is an old player(getting old), i will change it soon.

So which do you recommend?

A single headunit player or a 6 CD changer replacing the old CD changer.

The days of the changers are fadding away, get a CD player that is Ipod ready and then you'll have the world's biggest yet smallest changer

sell your cd changer on ebay where it can get over 200 $$ right now. that's a pretty decent head unit right there.

CD changers are not necessarily old school; some can do mp3 CD's, in case you prefer that over an iPod.

It's amazing, and it makes me leap! Definetly those bulky CD's I see going the way of the Dodo. ^
(for joy)
But that it is not for a while, look at the cassette tape. Granted it is in intensive care but still hanging on. Sorry I must getting tired I'm rambling. Definetly get something that you can use a portable mp3 player or iPOD with.
