This is unit was very simple to install, and works great. The power output is great for stock speakers, and the pre-outs are great for your amps. easy to work with the external brain, makes installs so much easier. all in all a great unit for the price

i just received this unit and installed it yesterday. this unit works great! i found that the menus were easy to navigate my way through (i have always owned kenwood and am used to the menus) the sound quality is great, and having the "brain" to put additional devices in is a must have feature...now i never have to rip apart my dash again. all in all...i dont think i couldve found a better unit for the price i paid. i only wish this unit had a display when the screen is down.

thanks sonicelectronix!!
