As a birthday present to myself today, I decided to upgrade my Elise's head unit.
I'm considering these two units and wanted to see if anyone had opinions on either. Mainly I wanted BT that works with Android, XM radio compatibility, clean sound output, and rear AUX is a big bonus. Opinions on differing units are okay too!

Currently I have OEM size JBL speakers but will be uprating to 6.5 rear and 5.25 front Hertz when I find a set of front speaker rings that will fit.
I am also considering an Alpine power pack, rather then run a full size 4 channel amp. Thoughts on those guys?
Thanks.
