Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I bought this stereo because it was one of only a few other models that have the Bluetooth, HD Radio, and Aux/USB/ipod Trifecta. Price wise none of the others come close. Typically other stereos require a special cable connected to the back of the stereo and require you to drill through your dash or have wires exposed under the console. The fact that this stereo has USB on the faceplate is really one ups the competition.
My area has 14 HD radio stations and you really can tell the difference when the HD signal locks in. Disc play back is what you would expect from any other player. The Aux and USB work great.
My favorite feature is the integrated Bluetooth. Pairing with my phone was a snap and receiving calls is simple and easy. Your music is muted while the caller id information (name and number) is displayed and when you end a call sound resumes. The microphone has good pickup and I have not had any complaints from people saying they could not hear me. I did not have to raise my voice either to talk.
There are only a couple of issues I have that warrant 4/5 stars.
1) The display is very difficult to read during the day time unless it is in direct sunlight (think black and white gameboy)
2) The display options are limited in that you cannot display the station call sign or song data while also displaying the time of day. You have to choose between seeing the station number and time, or station call sign and song name.
With that said though, these are only real minor issues and all of the other positive features outweigh them by far. I would recommend this to anyone, and would purchase again if I had another car.
