This has been a great reciever so far, took some getting used to b/c its the first one i have owned with the ipod adapter and all already in place. I installed in my boat at the beginning of the summer, added four kicker speakers to the stereo and they have TONS of sound, also had two amps hooked in to it and had to turn both amps down b/c the stereo put out so much power on its own. great product and great buy, still learning all the buttons and tricks, but so far so good.

I have had the m309 in the boat for this whole season and it works great. Really nice using flash drives hooked up to the usb for weekends worth of music. Nice power output for speakers ran my kick 6.5" with no need for an amp. Seems to be a nice quality piece well built so it should last for years to come. Also we boat down at the ozarks so the water can get ruff and that doesn't make it skip a beat.

Customer Testimonial

I'm 34 years old, and have never had a "real" stereo in my car. I ordered a few items to begin with at around 2pm. By 4pm the next day, EVERYTHING HAD ALREADY ARRIVED! I've found Sonic Electronix to have phenominal pricing, and without a doubt I will use them in the future!!!
