Best car in-dash unit combining both MD and CD

[Cellex]

I would like to purchase and install the latest car in-dash audio unit that has both MD and CD features i.e. that there should be an MD slot and a CD slot. I am not interested in the changers unless one of them is self-contained in the in-dash unit. I've tried searching the net but in vain. Could someone help me please to identify the best most reliable units possible?

Many, Many thanks,

Cellex

I purchased an A;pine unit a couple of years ago. with an in-dash 3-disk magazine, plus a minidisc player that is exposed when you press a button. I bought a pair of extra CD magazines for convenience/flexibility.

So far, I only tested the minidisc player with a test minidisc prior to purchase, but am now looking around for a recorder, since the proces are much lower now than when I bought the Alpine unit a couple of years ago (when I was talked out of buying the alternative CD/cassette combo unit). So I'm looking forward to at last recording my own selection of tracks ...

The Alpine unit sounds great! But it cost nearly AUD $2000 then (two years ago), and there may well be others around now. At the time, it was the only one on the market.

Dear Tony,

Many thanks for that piece of information. Would be gateful if you could tell me the model number of the Alpine unit(s) you purchased.

Kind regards/Cellex
