hard thumping bass makes this unit skip to the point it is useless

i really like this unit all but the fact it skips when bass hits. I would not recomend this to anyone who plans on running a system because it is useless.

Strengths:
For the time I bought it, it is a good receiver, 4 preouts, flip down face, and can display cd text if you have a text reading CD changer.

Weaknesses:
low preout voltage

Summary:
I think this was a good deal, I bought like 2 and a half to three years ago. Its been pumping clean music to all my aftermarket amps and speakers, I like this item. Mine has power antenna support, its a light blue cable on the harness, thats what I use to turn on my amplifiers.

Good CD player and antiskip. Good functions too.

I think if you don't have power antenna this is a good headunit to get.
