Great features

This stereo unit had all the features I wanted, plus some. The bluetooth set up easily. Sound quality is good.

Feaure packed, value priced!

This HU has so many features to customize your sound, I'm still playing around with it more than a month later! You can listen to tunes via Bluetooth, front/rear usb input, the tuner, Pandora, and even old school cds. Haven't used the cd drive and don't use the tuner much. It's also upgradeable to Sirius XM satellite radio. All this plus customizable illumination for both the display and buttons--what more could you ask for?!

PROS: All the different playback options
Bluetooth playback and seemless Andriod phone setup
3 RCA outputs for separate front or sub amp hookup
Sound tailoring

Cons: Learning curve kind of steep, but pretty intuitive after a couple weeks
The Pro Audio Setting has no section in the user guide, not sure how to tailor the sound, even though its based on personal taste
Programming the tuner presets is a PAIN beyond the first 6 stations - still haven't figured that out yet

Overall, this is a DEFINITE recommend.

great buy

Great product, love the display and the color options. I like the fact that it has 3 preamp out puts because I run dual amps for my subs and my components. The Bluetooth is awesome as well. If you're looking for a good priced head unit with all the bells and whistles this is most definitely the one!
