Default Stereo ideas for TM

Hi all,

Thought I'd add my 2 cents - although slightly off-topic. For my TM, my plan is to purchase an AM/FM/CD head unit that has a front-panel 1/8" mini-stereo jack. Based on great feedback from this forum, I plan to wire the TM's powered radio antenna lead to the power antenna lead on the head unit. I'll add a side (or front) panel 12 VDC power cut-off switch so I can cut all power to the head-unit. I'll use the front-panel stereo input jack to accept an audio feed from a Walkman style cassette, portable MP3 player, laptop PC (for stored MP3s), TV output etc. There are several models from Aiwa and other brands that sport this front-panel jack for about $200. Crutchfield (http://www.crutchfieldadvisor.com/re...ver_guide.html) has a great selection and is a good resource for idea, no matter where you end up buying from.
