Cheap Head Unit


Hi everyone,
I am a former car audio enthusiast who has been out of the game for more than 10 years. I am so out of the loop that I do not know what is good and what is not anymore. I had Eclipse, Boston Acoustics, and Precision Power amps in the past. I shamefully now have a stock cassette/CD player in my explorer ( I know!!!).
I am looking for advice on a head unit for my wife's 2004 Camry. She has the stock CD/cassette now. The reason we want to replace it is that it hums loudly when going near power wires etc., like interference. This occurs with tape, CD, and radio. The head unit and the back glass have been replaced already with no improvement. The dealer says it is just something with that head unit and cannot be remedied. Her and I cannot stand the way it sounds and want it to stop.
So, we are looking for a cheap head unit to power the factory speakers. The only requirement is that it does not sound worse than the OEM one, it plays CD's, and it preferably plays MP3's. Any suggestions in the $100 range?
Thanks,
Pat
