Sony CDX-M20

Good Value for a boat

Good Value for a boat, being in FL, the salt take a toll. So this is priced at the low end, and can be replaced with out much pain.

Easy install

Arrived as promised, brand new in sealed carton. Replaced my older
Sony radio with tape player. Fit perfect and used same old connections.
Sound is great, but found a blown speaker in the two speaker system.
Will order some new speakers. Sony I think ? So far so good. I would
reccomend this company to anyone searching.

great radio

the radio works great looksgood in the truck it is easy to work

Rare Gem - Sony CDXM20

LCD makers obviously haven't leaped that last hurdle -- making a display easily seen in bright daylight. Often we can't even see what we are taking a picture of in brilliant sunshine. We snap away at the ladies on the beach with our fancy smartphones trusting to dumb luck.

Problem is -- those same unthinking smartphone designers are putting the same displays in car stereos, and here we have glare coming not just from one direction, but from every reflective surface inside the car and out. Ever glance to see what station you're on, and find yourself doing the Egyptian neck-stretching dance to find a clear shot at the radio display? And even when you find it, it's a bunch of swirly mush with the salient numbers hidden in there somewhere?

You thought that display looked SO KEWL at the stereo dealer, and the dealer knew that. Betcha Seal teams don't have equipment with silly displays like that. Life-and-death means being able to SEE what you're doing.

Let's go. Let's step up to the Sony CDXM20. Totally unfussy. Black design fits anywhere. Latest electronics for tuning, CD playing, music reproduction, etc. Fits easily into a standard DIN mount. Even comes with a nifty remote control! And the best part -- a simple, black-on-white, backlit, big blocky LCD display. The type that only gets clearer when the ambient light becomes brighter.

Go ahead, race down the Interstate playing with the radio remote. A quick glance at this display tells you immediately what station you've hit, what time it is, or what mp3 is playing -- all without straining and confusion. You may have just made your driving 100% safer.

It says it's a "marine" radio. Ignore that. Misguided marketing. It's a radio for those of us who just like to see what's going on. For $109.99 it is absolutely a no-brainer.

Pleased so far.

I've installed this radio in my boat. I needed good reception in a weak signal area. The radio sounds great in my garage. The water is still too hard to test it in the Michigan UP where I will use it. I did find that a whip antennae works much better than a 4 foot VHF antennae. Too new to evaluate durability

Best choice ever!!

I purchase this for my golf cart. Sound is great. Easy to install! Best purchase I ever made!

Perfect replacement

Very quick to ship the radio. A perfect replacement for my older boat radio that is no longer made but one thing Sony does well is that all their new equipment will use the same plug in for all equipment. My remote in the boat even worked with the new radio. Very satisfied with my purchase.
