I bought this radio about six months ago. It turned my car stereo system, which i thought was kinda junky, into an absolutely beast! The speakers in my car are pretty good speakers but with the factory radio the whole system rotted. I thought this radio in it would help and then eventually i'd put better speakers in but I really haven't had any need to at all. This radio has lots of functionality, easy to use, puts out incredible sound quality and you can read your ipod right off with the USB and charge your ipod at the same time! I highly recommend this radio!

While AM radio may seem passe, it still has it's uses. This head unit has absolutely no usable AM reception with my vehicles roof mounted "shark fin" antenna. Factory radio was fine. This unit with a standard fender stick does ok, but I'm not drilling a hole in my new car. Can't find an AM antenna amp. As for the iPod control, works with my 5th gen Video and new 3rd gen Touch. One annoying aspect is that you must use the head unit to control and it can't seem to remember it's place in the artist list . Therefore you must start at 'A' every time you want to choose a new album. At best annoying and at worse distracting when you need to pay attention to the road. Pretty display though.

Does (nearly) everything I wanted: Plays CDs, MP3, WMP. Has USB input (which remembers where you left off even if you remove the device for long periods of time). Also has AUX input (which I haven't even used). The display is nearly perfect, providing a lot of information. Really, a fantastic stereo.
There are only two drawbacks: 1) the free installation kit that came with this stereo does not account for the faceplate which must pivot down in order to allow a cd to be inserted and/or removed. What this means is that if you install the stereo flush (as the installation kit requires) then it can be difficult to pivot the face of the stereo. I have had to trim the kit and still must "force" the face to pivot down and up. If I had to do it over (and I may soon), I would use the sleve included with the stereo instead of the installation kit and have the stereo extend out of the dash 1/3 to 1/2 of an inch. It may not look quite as "finished" but it would work perfectly.
The other (#2) downside to this player is the equilization controls. They're VERY advanced and not meant to tweak on the fly. As long as you've got time to sit and concentrate on tweaking the sound, you're fine. But I would have been more satisfied with the traditional bass/treble/midrange controls.
All-in-all, I'd buy this stereo again in a heartbeat. Absolutely awesome overall and solidly dependable.
