Good Headunite for budget builds and starters

Its ok

Its most likely 50 watts max and 25 watts rms..the sound qualitys crisp but not near good .if you have 3 way speakers this head unit wont have enough juice. I say its 80 dollars for a reason.. sound processor isn't that great vs an alpine. its the best looking cheap radio around but if you want deep bass even out of speakers your not gonna get it from this .

Simple yet reliable

This head unit is a great unit for those looking for something a little more affordable but want to stick to a reliable name brand. Aux input on the front makes playing music from your MP3 player easy and the cost makes it very attractive.

Best Service From Sonic!

I got mine delivered right on time. I was going to get it from a chain store (PC R******) & i had to pay extra for the harnesses. I came here to Sonic, got my ScoscheTA2154B & Ta02B for free, and free ground shipping for $80! I haven't installed it yet, but everything was fine, product came in perfect condition. I will Re-review it once i get it up and running. Sonic Electronix is the best, don't second doubt them.
Hey you can't go wrong with $80 bucks!

Kenwood is the best

My cousin installed a stereo like this one in his 1500 chevy and it works and sounds awesome. The sound is so crisp... I truly recommend this stereo, it's affordable. the usb direct control is an absolutely great feature... so for everyone who doesn't like carrying all those cd's... the usb fixes the problem.
