Fantastic Sound!

Purchased this receiver for my Jag because of the user-definable color display. The sound is fantastic, as would be expected from JVC. Great job controlling my ipod. Controls are a bit difficult to access, though. Overall a great value.

JVC KD-R300

If you buy a deck to use your iPod purchase one that works for it, not just advertises it. i purchased this unit and the cable to use it with my ipod and my ipod is not compatible and able to be controlled through the head unit. defeating the entire purpose of my purchase. Overall the other features of the deck are nice, color choices are fun to change and mess with and the sound quality is very good. as well as the EQ and subwoofer controls.
