I bought a capacitor for by brother-in-law. It has twice the energy at half the price we would have paid in the stores here at home. He loves it and said it was very easy to install and there was not much tweaking needed. It was an awesome purchase and i would definitely purchase from here again.

HD radio sounds great. Lot's of audio control. Feature packed for the money. Very happy with my radio. It has better sound quality than pioneer. Menu can be problematic at first. I'm used to pioneer.

just installed this head unit and the clarity and RCA output voltage at 4 volts is great. It is definitely worth the money and also its able to play .m4a files with 1411 kbps so there is a huge difference between ordinary mp3 files. I can never go back to the entry level headunits after switching to this one get it! Also the equalizers are mind blowing also you can disable the lpf for your subs and hpf for your indoors which works great for me because I run two amps for both. You won't regret getting this head unit especially for the price.
