Installation was very quick and easy, i have been using it for 8 months now with no problems. It gets good radio reception, quickly loads music cd's and dvd's. Loading a SD card does take some time to load and if you don't push the face plate completely closed the color in the screen doesn't work. I have not yet used the USB port, AC port or the video input. This is a very satifying product.

I've had this product since it came out and so far it has been really reliable. I really like it, specially that I can control my iPod with the radio buttons. Yes the 3.5 screen is small and it would be a plus if it were bigger. Anyhow it is a really nice product for the price.

Review written by Herb from Modesto, CA
Some of you are probably dieing for a review on this receiver. Well I gave it a 8 out of 10 so far. I just got it in yesterday and installed it today on my wife’s car. I wanted the DVD player aspect of it because you can put 1200 or so mp3’s and put them on a DVD and play them back on a DVD compatible player like this one, which is very nice for the price of $200 or less, on average these multimedia receivers with a major name brand sell for in between $300 and $550 with this size screen, if you can get one with a decent middle of the row name brand like Jenson for $200 or less with the same features and work basically the same, that’s value!!
When I received it I hooked it up to a portable jump start battery and played around with it to make sure everything was up to par, in which I was a little disappointed with the files and folder accessibility when putting a DVD filled with mp3s, it was not very user friendly on how to easily retrieve these folders and files easily, there is no common since way with out reading the manual to get a good idea how one is going to go to song listings, let’s say for instance you want to go to album 27 song number 8 then you want go to album 145 song number 19, not really easy with out having to press the buttons on the face plate maybe fifty odd times or so to get to this point, after some practice it didn’t bother me later.
I think Jenson should have concentrated on this aspect a little bit more, after all when you have a thousand or so songs on a disc, it should be easily retrieved with out much input is what I say, I have to say the remote accesses files and folder faster than on the face plate, which I think it should be the same way on the face plate, I don’t really like using the remote. Any how other than that The DVD player for playing movies back played really nice no problems, FM tuner seamed to be quite nice, by the way this will play all formats, I tried DVD - + R & RW, CD – R, and some other formats, played every thing supper, and load time are pretty fast on everything. So far for having it one day only I would recommend this model. I will post a review down the road in about a month to see how it’s holding up and to further more to see if any bugs pop up that may discourage some body for buying this new model.
