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

Works well

Performs as hoped it would and is good value. Good to have in my boat.

Excellent choice!!

Bought this stereo for my 21 Ft. boat and the sound was way better than expected! This thing really puts out the power with nice, clean bass. A lot of bang for the buck! I would definitely recommend it, especially since it is so much cheaper than the high end models.

Sony CDX-M10

I am really thankful that I purchased this affordable product. I have had no problems with it and the sound quality is great.

GREAT PRODUCT, FANTASTIC COMPANY TO PURCHASE FROM

Second unit. 1st lasted 1yr 1 month. Sony showed no care to assist me. Bass pro would not bend its rules nor discount a little to satisfy me. I feel like I the unit was great and liked the way it operated, but just had bad luck. So I purchased it on line for a great price and have enjoyed it with no regrets. Simple to use.

Great value

I was very pleased with the installation process. I had to cut an opening in the dash of my boat and the template was a life saver. I love the way it looks and sounds.
