Boss radio

Im very pleased with the aesthetic of the product. I have not installed the radio in the vehicle yet but im sure I will be happy with it

Waste of money

This product goes on the bleep after a few months. First of all, they tell me the stereo is compatible and will fit my vehicle. It did not fit without modifications.

The SD card fell down inside the stereo and cannot be retrieved.

My USB Flash Drive has over 600 songs on it, yet the stereo will not play songs past 200.

When searching for a song from the Flash Drive, (they are in alphabetical order by singer), while trying to advance to the next song, it will jump from 89 to 95, yet the song I want to hear is 91.

Super great radio

This is the first radio I installed and it's a beauty and works like a charm .Great radio for the price and no complaints.

Great Radio, Could be even better!

I purchased this unit for my 2003 Nissan Frontier. The radio promises to have all of the great features that I have been looking for: CD, Bluetooth, USB, Aux input, and RDS. After using it for a few days, here is what I found: 1. Sound: Sound quality is very good, separation of highs and lows was quite good; 2. in the manual, it describes how to program the RDS / PTY functions. In the menu, there is no RDS, PTY, etc., unless you switch the tuner mode to Europe. In other words, it does not seem to work in USA mode. The manual does not state that it will only work in modes other than USA. If I switch it to Euro mode, AM Becomes MW, and, has different frequencies than USA, and, only has 1 set of pre-sets, but the RDS works. Contacted BOSS Audio, and they only suggested a reset, which does not change the issue; 3. Display - I like the blue buttons, and the display. However, if the unit is off, you cannot find the power button, because all of the lighting is off as well. This makes it very hard to use at night. The only light that is on when the power is switched off, is a small red light where the cd goes. 4. It does not connect to the factory dash lighting. So, again, if it is off at night, you cannot find the power button; 5. It has good quality sound even on the Bluetooth. I can now stream via my phone to the radio, which is a nice feature. 6. Did not fit into my dash opening with included brackets - had to move factory radio brackets to the new unit; 7. Poor design of Power / speaker connectors on rear - only locks on one side. There really needs to be a locking connector on both sides of the plug. This can cause the wires to not seat correctly, or even work their way loose. I added a bit of RTV to that side of the connector to prevent this from happening again.
Overall, even with the issues I have found, it does seem to work pretty well. Just wish they had better support, and really thought about engineering their products better. There are still those of us who have older vehicles and really just want the basics, not touchscreens. This one seemed to fit the bill for me, but, I am not happy. Will probably go back to my factory radio. Yes, the factory unit does not have Bluetooth, or Aux in, but, it does have RDS that works, and 6 cd's.
