Had this headunit installed in my '94 civic and no problems whatsoever! Great budget head unit delivering more than enough power to some infinity reference speakers I had. Crystal clear audio with both the cd player and aux input using an iPod/iPhone. Would def buy again!

I recommend. Great value for the price. Serious, you won't regret it the quality of the sound. Looks nice and bright at night. Easy to read. Buttons are easy to use and very simple after two trys. I was confused at first, but this head unit was easy to figure out. This made my Kenwood speakers sound Much Much better then my factory head unit. I have no complaints. This was the missing and last peice if my sound system to create a masterpeice of sound.

Customer Testimonial

Everything was included with my CD player as stated. My order arrived really fast and was packed very well. They are very fast to respond with phone calls for support questions and very pleasant to speak with. This company is far better than other companies I have dealt with.
