Default Stereo System Advice..Please

Hi All, I'm trying to build a really nice system for my 2009 C6. I've been seeing alot of info on the AVIC Z120BT and I'm leaning towards installing it. However, I would like to hear other suggestions on comparable systems. Also If anyone could also assist me with great speaker combinations to use with these units I would really appreciate it. Please post pics if you have them. I'm tired of going crazy trying to figure it out.

I went with the Pioneer 110BT which I upgrade to the 120BT via the recent software update. I absolutely love the unit. That said, the next alternative would have been the Kenwood. The one thing that is superior on the kenwood would be the Nav which is a Garmin nav. Some have complained about the Pioneer Nav, but I for one dont mind it at all. It works just fine and is very easy to use. I think the pioneer 120BT user interface is very simple to navigate and the ipod and pandor controls are terrific. So if it were me, I would stick with what I have. You might want to go to a stereo store than has both Pioneer and Kenwood and play with them both.

One other upside is the AVIC411 forum. Lots of useful information there though I am sure there are similar forums for the Kenwoods as well.

Here is a link to my stereo build thread. It has all the details from sound deadening, sub, amps and speakers.
