This stereo works great for me. The front aux input is great if you have an ipod because you just use the white 2-ended cord supplied with it to run it instead of paying $50 for an Ipod control. The subwoofer turn on mode is very easy to do once you read the instructions. What is also useful is the detachable faceplate so that it doesnt get stolen.

It's stylish and functional. The sound quality is great. The bass, mids, and treble all sound clear. The front aux input feature is great, plugging in my mp3 player and the sound quality through the aux input is clear. I highly recommend this deck!
