Good basic receiver

Bought this item to replace a broken receiver in a sauna. Simple and straightforward. Basic features. No cons at this time. Would recommend as an inexpensive replacement.

Good simple receiver

Purchased this item to replace a broken receiver in a sauna. Simple and straightforward to use, basic features, but that is all that was needed. No cons so far.

Great Product

I installed this into my old chevy pick up and it works great. The only thing i would change would be a manual equalizer. it just has the basic " classic, rock, pop" sound functions so you cant ajust the bass itself. Its good enough for me though.

Aweesome Stereo!

I bought this because it had awesome reviews. And I will be adding to the positive feedback. I have never installed a stereo before, in my life. Very easy, color coded wires and instruction manual made it so easy!
Stereo works like it should. Sounds so good all the ports work great.
If you want a stereo at a awesome price that does everything we expect,
BUY THIS ONE!

Good investment

I expected a low quality, basic receiver but to the contrary I'm very impressed with it. Solid casing, nice clear blue lighting, standard features but easy to understand. Overall great sound.

Love my sonic car stereo

I'm a female with no audio experience. I was able to install this with the simple instructions the company gave me. I saved hundreds and my stereo works great.

Great Value--Very swift Shipping!!

I was skeptical of the great deal I got with this company I ordered from. I ordered the radio and SonicE gave me a radio mount and factory wiring harness for FREE!!! Cant imagine a company doing this for a first time customer. Then came the wild part--the shipping was the fastest shipping that I have ever rec'd and trust me I have purchased many items on the net. VERY IMPRESSED with product and everything rec'd--esp. the fast shipping. Oh and the radio worked perfectly, as well as the cd player. THANK YOU!!!

Very happy!

I am always skeptical about buying certain thing online but my son recommended this site to me.I couldn't be happier with this car stereo! I went 2 years without one and this was worth the money plus more! I recommend this site now to everyone! I'm a hairstylist so I talk to a lot of people and I brag about Sonic Electronix and my stereo!

Great sound

Bought the Boss radio as a replacement for my OEM radio in my Jeep Wrangler. Just wanted a radio without any frills cause I also wanted cheap. To my zurprise, this radio outperforms my OEM radio in my new RAM. Sound is better and it pjlls in ten times the stations that my OEM does. Very surprised by the e,tra features also like remote control, etc. Definitely got more for my buck than anticipated. Also installing was a breeze with the free installation kit I got. Would definitely recommend this product.

great support!

I got my unit shortly after i placed my order. The installment in my car was simple.The cd player did'nt work so i called the support guys at sonic and they took care of the problem by sending me a new unit. The support was almost to good to be true......usually it is the customer trying to get in touch with the seller, but not at sonic. These guys contacted me numerous times by both e-,mail and phone calls. They were helpful and quick to resolve the problem. I did install the replacement radio and it sounds great. Thank you Sonic you guys rock!

Poor AM radio reception

The cd and media card systems work fine but the AM reception is poor. FM reception is average. I even tried changing antennas and AM reception was still poor. If you don't listen to talk radio then this unit will work fine for you.

Great Stereo

I ordered this receiver for the micro SD card slot and the USB port... It's exactly what I wanted! The only thing is and it's not a huge deal, is I can't adjust the bass/treble...Other than that everything is awesome!

Great Radio

I bought this for my son's car for his Birthday. His stock radio in his 06 PT Cruiser was not working properly so I saw reviews and got him this one. It is really nice and lights up blue, which matches his car. My son said the sound is really great and he is thrilled that he can plug all his electronics into it. It also comes with a remote in which he said he has not yet tried but, thinks is a really nice concept if you can memorize what button is for what. Then you never will have to take your eyes off the road to switch stations, functions, ect. Would definitely buy again!!

what an upgrade!!

Sentra 2004 lost left channel.... apparently a common problem... car has 225k... thus a minimal investment required. With the wiring kit a very straight forward swap... but the sound is incredible... feel like i am hearing songs for the first time.... resolved to keep the car for another 200K!!
Thank you for such a great deal
