The car: 2004 Toyota Camry
The set-up:
1 pair BOSS AUDIO SE 322 3.5 inch speakers (see review)
2 pair BOSS AUDIO SE 693 6x9 speakers (see review)
1 BOSS AUDIO 735UA headunit
1 SOUNDSTORM F4.400 400 watt,, 4 channel amplifier (see review)
No, I did not break the bank with this set-up, but you need to hear it to appreciate it! My wife wanted a better sound system in her car. I choose the BOSS AUDIO 735UA after seeing and hearing it for myself. For what I paid for this unit, it's features and performance rivals many more expensive units. Installation was a breeze, and instructions were clear and easy. My wife enjoys the MP3 playback ability, and the USB port is an added bonus. With front and rear (5 volt) RCA pre-outs, adding the above 4 channel was easy. It receives all the radio stations without any distortion, and plays any CD we throw at it. My wife also thought it was "so cool" that it came with a carry case for the removable face plate and a remote, which is small but amazingly functional. If you are looking for a head unit loaded with features, but will not unload your wallet, look into BOSS AUDIO, you will be surprised.

Review written by Stephanie from Plano, TX
Bought this to plug my Ipod Nano in. The unit itself sounds great, looks nice. But the USB does not function with the newer Nano and my older Nano, it works, but it cannot read Apple's file names, so the songs play at random. If you use the AUX it is fine, just quite. Overall for the price, it is OK.
