INTRO I have had my 2003 F-150 for about 6 months now. When i brought the truck it only came with a tape player, so i have been waiting around until i could find the right cd player at the right price, and i think i may have found what i have been ...

I have a 1993 Ford F-150. I needed a car stereo/CD player to be installed, and had a budget of $150. ...

Pros: Good Price. Good sound adjustment
Cons: Not very powerful, despite 22rms rating. only one pre amp output. CRAP FOR RADIO STATIONS!

I know these other guys speak very highly of it, but I am not quite as enthusiastic. Yes it is very affordable. One of the cheapest name brand units out there. It has bass, mid and treble adjustments *very nice*. It does everything else OK. I think they are being very generous when the say 22 watts rms. My old JVC unit was rated less, and played way better. It seems to me that just when you start getting some good sound out of it (volume at 28 out of 35, it just dies. I dont know about the "loud" feature either, I cant tell the difference with it on or off hardly. All in all its good. Better than many in the price range (blaupunkt, clarion, sony). I just was left wanting more.
