Summary:
Intitially, all I wanted was a stereo in my van with AUX so I could watch my DVD movies on my laptop with surround sound. I got a great deal. Now, I go on road trips and the ladies love the bass coming out from under the couch. Times have never been better. Clear sound, deep bass, unique cool blue display, ergonomic feel on dial. 2 thumbs ^.

Strengths:
Eye catching panel, trendy volume dial, flckering lights, high bass x3, AUX for surround sound if you want to watch movies with the ladies like moi. installed easily. economical

Weaknesses:
can't complain.

Summary:
Looks awesome at night, Jog Dial control is so much better than standard dials. H-Bass enhancement is one of the best I've heard. Power is good for just a reciever (45x4 peak, 23x4 RMS). RMS power is higher than most, you get good CLEAN bass. Lots of nifty features (source adjustment, "my info" automatically sets to certain stations at certain times, resumes CD play where you left off). Aux. front input is very useful, plug in anything that has a headphone output!

Strengths:
Jog Dial, power, bass enhancement

Weaknesses:
Remote control
