Great Deal, Great DVD player

I bought this in dash DVD player six months ago, and its still working great. Its comparable to the Jensen line of in dash DVD players. The screen is probably one of the best parts of this unit. Its amazingly clear. Easy to install and use, lots of features and connectability. From what Ive seen, its also very durable. A few weeks ago someone attempted to steal it out of my car, they pried on the faceplate and it didnt break off. Overall, this was an awesome buy, and I may buy another for my other car.

extraordinary buy

I bought the Dual XDVD8181 in December of 2007 and it is an extraordinary buy. The good things about it are the sound, features, and style. The sound is remarkably clear. It sounds even better with an amplifier and subwoofer! The features are almost endless, a front/rear camera input (that you can easily switch from your music, movie, or radio to look at the camera with a touch of the screen), a fine equalizer, and an iPlug connector that plays the music from your MP3 player. There are lots more, but I would be here all day trying to tell you. The style is beautiful (though it does not fit right in my 2002 Oldsmobile Alero, even with the fitting mount adapter); the screen opens and closes flawlessly. You can set it to where when you turn your car on the screen slides out and up automatically, I love that! The touch screen is unbelievably accurate (when calibrated) and the picture is beautiful, the next best thing to High Definition…ha-ha! I loved the easy installation and setup.

Though it has all of these great features, there are flaws. Every time I turn off my car and open the door, letting the CD/DVD player shut off automatically, and turn it back on later I have to setup everything again (calibration, radio stations, etc.). Somehow, it keeps resetting its self. It does get annoying, but I learned to live with it. Plus, it will not play a badly scratched CD or DVD (note: those bad CD/DVDs play in just about everything else). Last thing about it that can get a little agitating it the loading time. It takes about a minute or so.

Despite those flaws, it is a great buy, great deal too! I recommend it if you do not mind the flaws. Also, I would like to add that SonicElectronics.com did a wonderful job on the shipping. It got here promptly and safe.

awesome screen.

This is a great buy for the money. Easy to hook up. Great picture. The way to bypass it is to do this.
1. when the screen turns on put in a dvd.
2. when there is no picture but you can hear the sound do this.
3. press stop on the remote twice.
4. type 26604 on the remote.
5. Then press enter.

if that doesnt work just get a paperclip and hit the reset button on the front of the unit. It will work then.

Remember you have to hook the parking wire (yellow with a blue stripe) into the ground wire(black) when you put together the harness.

Great product- easy to use

I bought this unit about 3 months ago, and it works flawlessly. The controls are easy to use and find. The sound is fantastic and the color, clarity are way better than expected. The motor opening and closing the monitor works so well it seems effortless, unlike the Alpine I had before. I am very pleased and this unit was hundreds less!! The not so good?......The faceplate is not removable...Overall ..One of my smarter car stereo purchases.

nice

Just installed this unit in my 03 Tahoe. It works nice. Vibrant display is the best bet for your money. I have two freinds who just purchased this unit off of seeing mine in action. If you have the money get it.

IT CAN HANG WTIH THE BEST

Just purchased and received this unit. It installed so easy I was amazed. It far exceeds my expectations. The picture is crystal clear and so is the sound. Don't be fooled by the low price. It's a top notch unit.
