I have the Casablanca in one vehicle, very nice stereo but oddly enough am looking at the same JVC for my 300CD. I used to swear by Blaupunkt but over the years quality has really dropped off. The benchmark they once were seems to be a thing of the past. I've had 2 warrenty issues over the past 3 years and both units had to be completely replaced. I do like the black look of them but I honestly don't feel like the quality is really there anymore.
I would suggest going through Crutchfield for whatever you get, customer service is unmatched and for the novice or semi-novice they can be an excellent "aide" if you run into problems.
