My friend bought this head unit and I installed it for him. After putting it in and hooking up his subs and his factory speakers, his car sounded great for what he had. You have a lot of adjustment and lots of features for the money. It also has sub woofer control which is a hard to find feature on headunits for around this price. This headunit is a great buy and if you don't want to spend a lot of money, buy it.
