Summary:
Everything is ok. I have had it for over thre years now and nothing went wrong. Have it hooked up to 2 Rockford 12" subs and a Rockford punch 100 and it does fine. The only dislike I have is it doesn't read cd-r disks which really sucks.

Strengths:
I like the layout

Weaknesses:
A little technical to set the clock

Summary:
Everything is great for this Janpanese made in-dash unit.
Just won't take CD-R disc, I tried different kinds of disc, silver/blue, silver/silver, gold/silver, gold/gold, doesn't help at all. It rejects 50% of the disc I burnt by my Mitsumi CD-Writer which is made by Japanese too.

Strengths:
Good playback quality.

Weaknesses:
Won't replay CD-R and CD-RW disc.

Summary:
I paid 100. It is a good deck for the buck. Can't beat the price and it is reliable. I would recomend this to anyone who is not an audiophile becuase it has very simple features.

Strengths:
It is a cheap deck with a decent amount of features. It plays burned cds and doesn't skip. I also like that it has a detach face and front load cd. Also, this deck has a great eq option, preset by JVC.

Weaknesses:
The display is rather boring becuase of the singal color. Also, it has a weak pre-out.
