Default Need a new head unit

My shaker 500 unit just went out and I need suggestions on a replacement. I would really like one with gps but those are a out of my price range. Wanting to stay around 300 - 350. Also, would I need to replace my speakers, or would they be fine with an aftermarket unit?

I was thinking about this one:

For the money you are wanting to spend, its tough. Anything worth having is going to run you $400 and up. Both the Sony and Pioneer units are the major players and I would recommend both, just don't waste your money on less. If you don't want to pony up a little more $$, I would replace the factory headunit.

Go to Crutchfield.com and "outfit your ride"...that will get you goin.
