Product Description

You gotta hear this from Aiwa! It's the CDC-X217 in-dash CD player which has features like 45 Watts x 4 of power, a volume meter & a pre-amp output. It can pump out some rumbling lows, thanks to the advanced H-Bass boost. You can even program a radio show into M-^SMy Information,M-^T so that even if it's turned off or you have a CD playing, the radio will switch on at the correct time! And thereM-^Rs a useful front input jack, so you can listen to your portable cassette, MD or MP3 player!

2.0 out of 5 stars [inexpensive] but not very good, April 10, 2002

While this stereo is priced well (usually [$$$]), you do get what you pay for. The buttons are not easy to use by touch only. To get from FM radio to play a cd you must push the source button 5 times! There should be a "play" button to go straight from radio to CD. Also, if you use a cell phone in the car, don't get this radio. The radio is not shielded so you will get interference from cell phone. Each time I use my cell phone I have to turn the radio all the way off. Lowering the volume does not help. You still get a loud buzzing sound. I didn't have this problem with my previous stereo. Also, cd's tend to skip for no reason. Even when driving on a smooth road, all cd's will skip.

4.0 out of 5 stars It's A Great Cd Player, April 25, 2004

Man I don't know what the previous owner is talking about. I owned the cd and it's a great cd player. I had no problem from it. But if you want a super cd player and you are willing to spend money, get the sony xplod cdx-m630. And I owned that cd player too and it's amazing.

Ive had this cd player for 10 years and it will still play any CD I put it. It never has mattered how messed up the cd is. made my 2 kenwood 6x9s thump very well. I wish they still made them. Ive had it in 2 vehicles. Great buy. just this year i am sadly shopping for a new unit. Aiwa and I have been through a lot together. so sad. the skip up button skips randomly with bumps now. thats no good with my new Motorola T505 radio transmitter bluetooth device.
