Way good deal! You know , i am a little bit picky about my stereos . I've had a Pioneer DEH-P800PRS about 3x more $ and a Pioneer DEH-P980BT about 3x more $. I must say I am very satisfied with this stereo. Sure it doesnt have all racing cars or dolphins on the display but, thats okay. You wont regret it!!

Review written by Mike from Placerville, CA
Great value! I would pay $160 for it without losing sleep. Ive had it for a month. Lets go down the features list.
1 HD radio, the only thing that makes it worth it is the Tag button. sound quality is great when driving is the city, countryside it goes in and out of HD to regular.
2 Ipod control works like a charm, I can control from radio or ipod.
3 Aux jack is on the face plate, I wish it was in back, works good.
4 USB port plays files off of a flash drive, useful.
5 Blue tooth is perfect, when I turn on my car it auto connects with my phone. when I make a call it puts it on the speakers and the mic picks up my voice good. Pauses music and displays phone number for incoming calls.
6 Cd works like its supposed to.
7 Three sets of pre amp RCA. I used the sub woofer RCA. I can change the power level of the sub from the stereo seperate from the bass, this is handy because some songs I want more or less base from the sub. Turning it all the way down turn off the sub ( I do this when Im sitting in my car listening to music at school in between class when the car is off, subs will kill a battery within a half hour).
8 Looks. The blue lighting is cool and so is the design, ( my opinion Duals look way cooler than any other brand) Some other reviews say that the buttons feel cheap... they are fine. would buy again. PS free shipping to CA makes up for the pricey taxes. Thanks sonic.

Review written by stephan from denver, CO
Built in HD radio tuner so you have hd stations out of the box.
controls are fairly easy to master
love the choice to control IPOD from the head unit or the IPOD
USB input works great for flash drives
bluetooth phone pairing idea is nice (with incoming phone call, music is automatically paused or muted and callers phone number is displayed on head unit and ring tone is played through the speakers. you then either answer or ignore call via control on head unit. you hear the caller over your car speakers which is nice but i found myself having to lean close to built in microphone on head unit to be heard on other end)
Your guys service is fantastic. I dealt with another online car audio dealer and it took them almost a week to ship my order you guys are same day thats awsome. I will definatley will be using you for all my car audio needs.
