Great Buy

I really like this stereo. It looks and sounds great in my 1998 mustang. I have it hooked up to my 1200 watt amp and my two 12's make my system. i am so glad i got this head unit and it was so much more affordable than most of the other head units around.

works ok

i bought this for a fdiend that wanted to put subs in his car. I insalled it for him and it works fine but it is simple. Not a lot of features. It is ok for the price.

Ok value

It is good because it doesnot skip when I hit the NY potholes. It takes a bit long to pick u on the songs when its just turned on or interrrupted. It has a decent sound quality
