It was a very good upgrade for my 626 Mazda 2001, sound quality is very good, front USB enable you to put what ever music you like to listen to quickly and front, back AUX to connect your portable media devises. Installation was good with the Metra dash kit and wire harness that comes free with the purchase of this receiver. Nice colors enable you to match your dash light color. The main reason I bought this to get the benefit of using AUX better than carry a huge CD wallet in your car.

This is a great stereo, I chose this one solely on rear aux, color change and USB. Rear aux so that i could run the auxiliary cord into my center console so i wouldn't have it out and flying around when i drove. On my old Sony that i took out the lights matched it with the stock green, so i wanted that with the next radio i got. And the USB so i could charge my phone mainly. I put this in my 1993 Miata without thinking a lot on the wattage out put. It puts out a lot of sound for a small car, especially with two speakers in both of the headrest. The Mids and Highs sound great, but on the equalizer, you don't need to put it on "Natural" unless you are driving with the top or it will give you a headache. I mainly keep it on "Dynamic". As i mentioned, the Mids and Highs sound great, but bass is almost none existent with out an amp. Could just be a setting on the radio that i havnt found yet. As far as settings go its little confusing navigating from one to the other.

Overall this is a good product. I would recommend it to anyone looking for a cheap high quality head unit. Pros: Easy to use, many EQ settings to get the right sound for your music, It looks really good. Cons: So far I haven't found any.
