Hi. There's always Sam's Club and their now $99.99 Aiwa receiver. It comes
with an Aux jack on the front panel.
Surprising (especially since the unit also comes with 2 crappy speakers) it is a
decent unit. My son had paid several hundred dollars for a JVC receiver and
then bought 2 decent Pioneer speakers. But I still thought the sound was bad.
When I started using that car for myself again, I put the Aiwa in it. You can't
believe the improvement in the sound quality (even from the tuner section).
There Aux jacks used to be common when CDs were fairly new and portable players
cost $300. But as you know, as CD caught on more and more head units had CD
players in them and the jacks have been eliminated for the most part.
I haven't seen a recent Aiwa catalog, but a the last time I checked, most of
their auto receivers had the Aux jack.
Aiwa is a highly under rated company. Largely do to the fact that they are know
for making plastic book shelve units for Gen X. But they do make some higher
end stiff and their quality is very good (I think the F70 is an excellent MD
recorder (except for the stupid external battery dongle.
