Default Radio's gotta go.. but.....

A couple speakers sound blown, and I know it will be pretty easy to do an incognito speaker swap at their current locations with new dual-range speakers of much better quality... the speakers are not my big concern... my big question really is with the head unit. I want a unit that is very simple and nearly stock-looking. Just black and a few presets and the normal controls--doesn't even need cassette. I'm not into big blingy thunderous tunage and most of the stuff I'm seeing is flip-out or brushed silver or big LCD screens or detachable and on and on and on... don't need or want that. Would like to stick to something German and at least looks fairly period-correct. Blaupunkt or perhaps Alpine. And of course it's gotta fit and look factory. Can't stand hacked jobs. If an amp has to be added in the trunk or under passenger seat or something, I am fine with that... again, I don't need thump, just good, clear, decently loud stereo for cruisin. I listen to mostly Jazz and indie rock and it just needs to be clear and solid. AND: is there something available that will interface with my BMW 6X disc changer in the trunk? I know this is a lot of questions and perhaps what I want is impossible, but help if you can. Should I just look for a NOS factory unit or something? The screen is dark and the buttons are worn off and I can only assume it is tired. It also obviously is not originally designed for the optional 6-changer and CD selection and sorting is kinda vague with no clear CD controls....
