I ordered the Panasonic CQ-5800U while it was on backorder. Within a few days, I received a telephone call from Sonic Electronix letting me know the product was on backorder. I was offered alternative items that were in stock. The customer service representative was very friendly and helpful. I decided to wait for this product, and within a week it was shipped to me. When I received the stereo, the harness to plug into the back of the stereo was not included. I called Sonic Electronix and let them know the harness was missing and it was quickly mailed to me. The customer service rep actually remembered me from when he called about the stereo being on backorder!
Although it would have been ideal if the harness was initially included with the original shipment-- the issue was resolved so quickly and without any trouble, that I didn't mind at all.
The stereo looks great and was exactly what I was looking for-- there are very few other stereos with the understated "normal" look I wanted.

Customer Testimonial

I bought some Focal speakers from Sonic for $150.00, They are $220.00 in the local stores plus they will rip you on installation.. I put these in myself and I finally felt good about a car stereo equipment purchase.. Plan on getting some more stuff also. Thanks Sonic Electronix.com Your the bomb!
