Had to replace the head unit on my pontoon boat and thought I better get with the times! This did that, just plug in your I phone and close the door. You can play all your music while the phone is safely tucked away inside!

Good clean power, and good reception of the Minneapolis radio stations from 70 miles away. Haven't used the remote yet, just plug in hide and shuffle.

I purchased this stereo for my Harley Davidson Street Glide. The stereo performs great, water & moisture have never been an issue and I have had it in the rain, iPod dock is absolutely the way to go, tons of songs and not limited to 165 files like with a jump drive on a Sony stereo. Go for it. Sonic was great.

I really like this setup. With the Ipod sliding right in. Who needs a disc player anymore anyway. I have it installed in my boat with the other electronics behind the clear plastic door, so it does not get wet and the remote shoots right through. When I get to the sandbar I just start up a playlist and let it go for hours. Paired with six 7.7 JL Audio speakers it sounds great. So far no issues..
