I would recommend this product to anyone looking to transform their stock car / suv speakers into a mobile theater. The 5v preamp connection not only makes your music and DVD's sound crisp but the quality is amazing. It has 2 EQ's one set for the door speakers and another for your bass. The crossover also is wicked it's a must have, each speaker has its individual crossover setting. The only little quirk with the deck is its numerous and huge options it has in order to customize it; its very tedious. Time wise it may take you about a half hour to an hour to set the deck to your liking. But the advantages can be seen with the skin changing, the wallpaper customizations both on start up and your source screen. I call it the pioneer killer for all the AVIC's. So do your self the favor.

Not the easiest unit to use, the bluetooth function can be tricky to set up. But great value nonetheless. Easy to install, great audio features and good picture quality.

I would recommend this product. Its features and quality in sound / image makes them an unique feature for its class. The part I don't like is that if you want to watch TV on it as expected, you need to buy an external unit that costs almost the same as the radio. The same if you want to use its GPS capabilities... Probably the general price of this unit is a little high, but quality is excellent, so it compensates. Front face buttons are not the best ones to use. They are extremely small and uncomfortable to press..

I love my JVC head unit I bought for my car. My boyfriend told me to check out this site and it had the best prices for the best headunits I could find anywhere. I'll be making sure go buy my sub and amps from Sonic Electronix because this headunit is coming with me. Thank you all!
