Default need a single din hu recommendation

Hey guys, I'm done with my dash conversion on my 96 and i'm going to get rid of all the bose stuff completely. I want a stealth install that's simple and sounds decent and isn't visible and doesn't add a lot of weight.

Here's what I'm thinking ($1200-1400):

speakers : either alpine or full kee package now (with stealth box)
amp: alpine pdx 5 channel
hu: want it to have integrated bluetooth, HD radio, ipod controls, and decent voltage low level outputs.
sound deadening : still researching (something lite and simple though)
wiring: still researching
looking at pioneer hu and alpine hu's. The closest I see is the pioneer deh-p7200hd. maybe something else too. I really love HD radio, I have it on a JVC deck (hd1) in my other car, but i'm not completely crazy about that deck for the camaro.

No, I don't have them personally but wish I did. If I was starting from scratch, I would definitely get it. You could go cheap on every set of speakers and still probably won't beat the price. As long as they are amped, CDT are some of the best sounding components on the market.
