Has anyone checked out the Nakamichi NA400?

It looks nice and clean: white on black, no unnecessary bling trim/buttons/lights. And it has USB and aux inputs. http://www.ebay.com/itm/NEW-NAKAMICH...f55ca4&vxp=mtr

OK I just bought one for the Rabbit. If it turns out to be a nice unit I'll update tis thread and get one for the E30 :)

Nice unit. Happy so far.

I installed the NA400 over the weekend and completed the amp & sub installs last night. I like the look, although the unit is piano black, not satin black that would be a better match. And the front is convex rather than flat so it does not look factory. All that said, it is still white on black so it blends fairly well. It plays MP3s well via the USB although cannot read an iPhone via the USB, which is unfortunate. The aux port works fine but of course it is no longer line level at that point so you have to depend on the source for good sound. The CD is excellent so far; it takes a moment to spool up but it has about a 2 second cache so it has time to recover if you hit a bump. It has not skipped even over some rough surfaces in a 1984 VW Rabbit convertible with Eibachs/Bilstein sports. My biggest gripe is that the volume goes to 50; to go from min to max is ~4 turns of the dial. Why the waffles do they do that? If I'm driving I don't want to take my hands off the wheel for 4 seconds to adjust volume. I think in the E30 I am going to keep the original Hu for radio and install an Audiocontrol LC8i for music from other sources.

The Clarion CZ702 I bought for Klaus does everything that one does, plus it adds an amber display selection, 5v preouts, iPod control, rear USB and a remote, all for less money.
