Good sounding head unit / NAV for car?

My factory NAV is starting to have issues (it is 4 years old now) and I was thinking about a new unit with and external amp and sub.  I like the Pioneer Stage 4  P99RS but I have an issue with it not having built in Bluetooth for streaming Tidal.  I really like the AKM dacs it uses and the DSP, but BT is a big factor for me in convenience - mostly all my newer music is on Tidal.  The P99RS is a few years old and it had a BT interface box but they are difficult to find and only on the used market.  Since I am willing to spend, I'd rather get something newer, is easy to setup, and has all the features.  Are there any NAV or non-NAV units available that have more than decent quality of sound - something that stands out?

I am looking into the Kenwood and Pioneer NAV systems.  I am not planning on playing anything more than redbook or streaming Tidal.  

I have some portable daps that I can connect to phone, etc but I would like something all integrated instead of having to plug several things in at once, etc.  I don't like the sound of the factory system but one big benefit is that it is all integrated together and I don't have to fumble around with anything.
