Great visibility at night; Easy to use sub and bass controls; Godd internal amp power for factory systems.

Time not shown with track number and time played.

Summary:
The Pioneer DEH-8500 MP is a great cd player. It has easy to use controls that are lit with a very visible bright blue color at night. Only thing I don't like is that you can't see the clock at the same time as the track number and time played.
