I purchased this unit to replace a Kenwood KDC-MP425 which served me well, but ultimately stopped ejecting CD's. Anyway while this one doesn't have the flashy graphics of the Kenwood unit it certainly outperforms it in function.

This unit let's you fast forward and rewind through MP3 CD's quickly. ID3 tags are read and the Aux input will be useful for when my friends with Ipods. Sound quality is very good, however I did not realize until installing that this unit only has one set of RCA outputs if you're going to hook it up to a four channel amp. The remote is a nice little bonus, as I had to buy my last one separately.

It was this or a unit with GPS built in for $200 more. I'm glad I went with this one and held onto my money during these tough economic times.

I just bought this stereo and it is very good. Not expensive but gives you value for your money.It is user friendly and the sound quality is very good. I would buy this item again if I need to get another stereo and would recomend it to anyone.

What a great AM/FM CD Player, and for $69.00. I needed a new AM/FM CD Player in the Freightliner Columbia I drive, because the stock Panasonic AM/FM CD Player's CD player quit working, and the FM reception wasn't very good. I wanted a standard FM radio, because I'm not of fan of everything digital, especially radios, and this JVC fits the bill perfectly for me. The FM reception is great, and I can pick-up a lot stations as I drive around the country, and with clarity. The only thing that bugs me is the directions on the manual for setting the clock and other functions aren't explained very clearly, but after trial and error I figured it out. To change the clock and other functions you need to push MODE, then push and hold SEL, then after functions come up on the readout click the forward or reverse nob to go to the function you want to change, then use the volume knob to change that function. This is an excellent choice for Radio/CD player. If I was a billionaire I'd still buy it.
