Great quality for price point.

Pros- This is a great head unit for the price. I was surprised at the sound quality and depth of adjustment available on such an affordable deck. I have always been an audio nut, and I am crazy about sound quality, and I was even happy with the frequency adjustments and sound customization. You can adjust the frequency response of not only the bass, but the mids and highs as well. Decent power to the speakers too. Thanks for a great deck at an affordable price clarion.

Cons- None really considering the price. There are better decks out there, but at a much higher price point.

Overall- If you are looking for a good deck with ipod and usb capability with in depth sound controls around 100$ price point, this is a great choice.

NO Hissing as others described

I have always been a Clarion fan. I was skeptical when I read two other reviews stating there is hissing when using the external amp pre outs. when read the first review, I thought the person may have a ground loop issue, but then I read another and figured if two people had a problem, well, then there must be a problem. I've been installing car audio for over 20 years and guarantee I don't have a ground loop issue. I too got this unit for the 5v pre outs and I run a 4 channel and a mono amp. I don't notice any hissing and conclude the two past reviewers must have a ground loop problem.

Other than that I love the intergraded features and the ease of access to the options. Still adjusting the sound levels but will be awesome very soon. Highly recommend for the price!!

Great value for what you get in return.

Internal bluetooth is awesome, but the range isn't that great.
Sound quality is great.
Great design, even thou I like things very square and plain and simple.
Internal mic isn't that great.
Complicated settings.

Good Price

Great value. The product completely met my expectations and more. Pros: Bluetooth hands free talking works flawlessly. Great sound quality, and very easy to use. Built in microphone is exceptional. No cons. I would recommend this product to anyone

Best unit for the money hands down.

Bought this unit for the Bluetooth to work with my Galaxy Tab 3 and because of the dual set of RCA'a and 3 band EQ and adjustable curve values and high-pass and low-pass filters. I have this running through a Clarion EQS746 7 band EQ and had to dial back the settings since this unit produced much better quality sound than my more expensive kenwood without half the features or Bluetooth. Just awesome crisp sound through all ranges so the EQ isn't having to make up for what the kenwood lacked.

This radio is great, excellent features and easy to navigate with great sound quality and reception, and nice clean styling. The Bluetooth paired flawlessly and easily and sounds great. I would buy another one without a second thought if I needed a radio.

Quality Sound at an affordable Price!

Replace an 50x4 Alpine 7892 with this 45x4 clarion unit, figured I was going backwards as for as output power! It actually sounds better and is as loud if not louder! With good quality Sound! Clarion and MB Quart component speakers, just can't see it sounding any clearer! Bluetooth Feature with my iPhone 5s? Can't find any roads Long enough! Awesome! Sonic Electronix hooked me up! Dark kit as well as harness connections, A+ service! Thanks a Million!

RIGHTEOUS

This is a unit with EVERYTHING......who could want more? Salesman put the package (ie: dash kit, wiring...etc) together PERFECTLY!!! (and he worked within MY budget) Took less than 30 minutes to remove the old and install the new Clarion CZ302 with it's RIGHTEOUS sounds. Thanks a Million.

This is a great CD player. I really like the aux input and USB input on the front. The built in mic works great for receiving calls.

Fantastic Deck!

Bluetooth is very easy to pair with your smartphone, plenty of features while still retaining user friendliness, and easy subwoofer and remote hookup.

Auto-pairing every time I get into my car. Usually takes less than ten seconds after the car is on until I can stream audio from my phone, with integrated control so that I can pause or switch music from the deck if I want.

Amazing

I was very skeptical at first about this brand, but after doing some long needed research I found out that Clarion is a pretty reliable company with reputable products. I bought this item based on the price and reviews. I can say with 100% satisfaction that this unit is solidly built, high quality and comes with lots f features without having one of those crazy controllers with 100 buttons.

Clarion CZ302

I owned two previous CZ102, both of which behaved erratically after a few hours of use (presumably overheating). I have had not issues with the CZ302. Good quality sound.
