This headunit has it all. Great price, great looks, and easily to use features. There are cheap head units, and then there are good head units that are cheaply priced. This is one of the latter. Great price, and has every option one should want out of a non double din unit.
I have installed 4 so far. Highly recommended
Easy to use, and looks super sharp!

Sometimes BT connects completely. I am able to switch songs from the Kenwood stereo.
However, a lot of times BT connects but I am able to switch songs on my phone only.

Everything about this head unit is great. This is my first time installing a stereo in my car and it was a breeze because sonic electronix sends you everything you need. The blue tooth and the USB connection are the 2 things I use the most and both work great. The remote comes in handy too. 1 negative: the instruction manual did not help much for presetting the stations. All in All coming from a harsh critic, this is a great product and an even better company(sonic electronix) to deal with. Will be buy speakers from SE in the near future.

This works great and is an excellent product. This is a great player no matter what but considering the price you can't beat it. The controls take a little getting used to but can eventually be mastered.

What can i say, sonic electronix is by far my go to site for all of my car audio. I just recently purchased my kicker zx300.1 amp and love it. Don't even think twice about this site because they are great and trustworthy. I would give them an A+++! I LOVE SONIC ELECTRONIX!
