You Wanted Sound Quality, Right? Wrong. You get Sound Quality AND technology. Finally, a resonabily priced deck loaded with stuff that should be there without getting it aftermarket.

Anyone who buys car audio stuff knows that it can be...

Pros: Great sound reproduction. USEABLE features. Nice style.
Cons: Some of the buttons are hard to control - too close together.

I'm only taking the time out of my schedule to write this because I think this is about the best car stereo unit I've ever owned - and at my age - I've owned quite a few. I've spent 3 times as much money and gotten less than half the sound reproduction...

Pros: sq rms rating 25wx4 angle adjust 3 preouts
Cons: so many features, takes awhile to master

i got the hookup on this deck from a friend and recently put it in my '93 concorde. running all jbl in my ride, amps and everything, the sound quality is amazing. ive owned about 3 other decks so far and this definately tops them all. so many features, equalizer adjustment, and crossover options its crazy. it took me a few hours to master it all. has 3 preouts in the back, as well as the function on the unit to switch between dvd/vcr, aux, game, and tv. my personal fav, has the angle adjust on the deck! the ladies love this :0 if your skeptical, dont be, this is a definite buy!
