I'm behind the times

[Richard H.]

I would appreciate some suggestions on what to put in my 71 build for a stereo. I got outta high school the same year ,71 . To me the system in my new camaro is a joke with way to many functions and apps. The system in my Silverado suits me better with good sound and simple to use. Number one it has to have xm and fm. I also want front -back and left- right control. My headliner has 4 speakers , kick panel speakers , and a dual speaker in the dash. The truck is completely shaved but if I have to mount a shark fin antenna I will but anything hidden is good.
I assume a head unit is just a control panel for an amp? Times have certainly changed since I was young.
