I bought this headunit in May of 2002 from Best Buy for just over $200. I didnt have much money and ...

Pros: Good sound, easy eq settings, very stable on the road.
Cons: Remote required for many basic tasks.

I installed this the other day into my 87 bronco, and have it running through an Alpine V-12 5-channel amp. (I plan on upgrading the speakers soon) The sound is incredible. Even on old speakers, the head/amp combination is very competent. (mostly the...

Pros: Durable, Customizable, stylish, inexpensive, 2 preouts (front and back)
Cons: Sometimes Low RMS, no wiring diagram for self installation.

I have this head unit in my car with the kenwoods, and man does this deck do what you want it to. there is a 7 band equalizer with customizable settings. I switched to this from my old Alpine 30x4 unit. So far I have not been able to make this head unit skip, plus it is XM ready, plays RW's, but the only thing is that it won't play cd'd burned on my version of real player, but then again, my stereo in my house won't either. This unit puts out a beefy 52x4 peak power, and about 15-25 watts RMS. Looks great at night!

Pros: The lcd colors, the EQ & it sounds nice when it's cranked up too!!
Cons: For some things you a remote, like programing the radio stations. No sub pre-outs.

I got this head unit, installed it in my car and hooked up to my 1,000 watt amp and bandpass box and man it Bangs big time. It looks really nice at night and the fact that I can have my clock and tracks on the lcd at the same time in kinda cool. I like that it play all my CDRW's too. I think programing and titling should be a little easier because I have to get the remote to get the ability to to do everything. all in all it a very nice head unit.

Great product. There is no competition for this. I wouldnt choose any other CD reciever for my car! It has 4 Subwoofer outputs where you can hook up a sweet amp. Also, it is included a handy remote for when you're in the back seat. The chicks love it!
