Pros: Ergonomically fairly well-designed. The 7874 sounds great with the BBE processor Cons: Relatively expensive. The display is hard to read in bright sunlight.
Background to this purchase
I replaced the stock stereo/cassette player in my 1988 Ford Bronco II 4x4 years ago with a $300 Sony CDX-4090 FM/AM/CD player. I liked the Sony, even with its quirks. The Sony was prone to stop playing CDs...
Pros: Lcd display, sub adjustment and sound quality Cons: it get a little warm and it doesn't have a remote.
This is a nice head unit. Starting with the fact the liquid crystal display shows the levels of bass, treble, and subwoofer. The deck sounds really good just hooked up to car speaker, but when I hooked it up to an amp and two 12" subs it was really banging. I like the fact that is plays all my CD's, the ones I bought and the ones I made. I also like the fact that the face removes and re-installs really easy so when I want to take it with me it's no sweat. All in all it worth every cent.
