The cd player NEVER skips over bumps. I really like the seperate sub control.

The stereo seems to have some face plate related problems in the cold (below freezing), it seems to think the face plate is off and shuts off, but it will turn right back on.

i would recommend this product for anyone with a system because of the separate sub control, that one feature makes it well worth the $.

This was the God Deck back in 98 now new decks have kick it's butt can I swear on this, with fancy color but their power level are still around the 40w to 50w. So this deck is kicking but it was worth the money.

It hasn't caught on fire - yet.

See below.

The volume knob feels cheap and inconsistent; the display rarely works properly; the FM reception is the worst I've ever heard, even if a station comes in well, the SQ is horrible; the line-level outputs cut in and out, and recently have begun to emit static regardless of source; the line voltage is LOW, much lower than the specified 2V; overall sound quality is very poor. And to top it off, Sony's customer service is non-existent.

Good sounding, nice audio controls.

Dropping channels, so I only get sub output.

Would not purchase sony again. I used to be a big proponent of sony stuff. In the last three years I have purchased 3 sony products. My home receiver went bad, with an indredible service fiasco. This was followed by my sony amp running my sub overheating anytime it was used over 45 minutes. This amp was eventually replaced. Now this car deck is going out, and will drop all channels except the sub off and on.

Sony has become a mass marketer of crap, leveredging their long standing record of quality components. It will catch up with them eventually, I for one will never buy sony again.

Kenwood in my other car has been a lot more reliable, no complaints though I do like the controls on the sony better.

Large display, fold down head, high s/n ratio, lots of functions.

Display is hard to read when too cold, buttons feel like they will not last long.

High clarity burr brown DAC, high s/n ratio. Has 6 line outputs, CD text capable, and sounds really good! I payed $300 for it and installed it myself two years ago with no probelems. Now its an old model, but you can beat the sound that it reproduces.

Great sound quality.

Display could be a little better.

I bought It for about $260.00's. It sounds great but the
display could be a little better, but over all it's a great reciver.

Easy to read display, circular volume wheel, sound quality, seperate sub volume control

Displayed error message when trying to play some cdr's

I would definatly recommend this head unit. I payed about 300 for it, and it never gave me any problems. I used it for about 2-3 years and i loved its performance...then someone stole it. So apparently others like it as well! The radio reception was great, but some complain of static from using the "wide" reception. I am seriously considering buying the same unit for a replacement, but i am still looking around at comparable models.
