I installed it into my Ford Mustang MY2009 connecting it with the Shaker500-system.
Wiring and sound quality is perfect.
Everything works as intended, but i find it annoying to select an artist or album in the browsing mode by single presses of the Seek-Buttons; with hundreds of artists / albums this is a pain. Pressing and holding the seek-buttons should fast-forward within the list of artists/albums but it does not and support says, that it is not getting fixed cause of limitations of the Shaker-System. So you can use it just to skip some tracks.

The sound quality is great, easy hookup, and integrated perfectly with the iPod. The only complaint is that it doesn't function quite like I think it should with respect to menu control from the Ford factory stereo. It is difficult to remember which button does which and the quick reference guide is too big and bulky to be useful to the driver.

Customer Testimonial

Andrew W was EXTREMELY helpful in explaining how to connect the high- and low-pass filters to my DLS car speakers. He went beyond answering my immediate questions by giving me some great tips as to how to cut the baffles I've made to optimize the speakers' sound quality. A great experience overall!
