From the Manufacturer

From the Manufacturer Manufacturer's Review (October 15, 2008)
With Sony's CDX-GT320 CD receiver, you'll get 52 Watts high power through 4 channels, a full-featured CD player, MP3/WMA support, AM/FM radio, and a front panel auxiliary input, all packed into an attractive gun-metallic case. While the CDX-GT320 keeps things simple, it also leaves room for expansion, as it's compatible with Sony's iPod adapter, satellite radio tuner, and HD radio tuner.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Stereo, July 24, 2008

This is a great CD player. It has many features, but is not that hard to use them. I bought it for my 2007 Ford Ranger XL and except for the hole left, since my truck came with a taller, more basic tape deck, it looked great. However since I'm a fairly skilled person, I made a carbon fiber plate to cover the hole. Now it looks wonderful. For those of you not so handy, adapters are available to eliminate the hole if it doesn't fit perfectly in your vehicle. Anyway, this is a great stereo for the price and I'd recommend it to anyone I know who is looking for a stereo with the features that this has.
Things I liked:
1.Will play not only audio cds, but also data ones that have MP3s and WMAs.
2.Input jack is great. Anything with a headphone jack can be plugged in and played on the car/truck speakers.
3.Removable faceplate is a cool security feature for those who park their vehicles in unsavory places. Fortunately I don't think I'll ever need to use it.
4. Has an actual lcd screen unlike many stereos that only have leds. So it's a lot smoother and more eye pleasing.

Things I didn't care for:
1.It beeps three times when you turn off the vehicle and exit it. I have grown used to it, though.
2. Every once in a while, it runs through its list of features on the lcd screen. Pushing "source" will stop it from going on and on.(can be turned off)

4.0 out of 5 stars Great Sound Quality, June 2, 2008

Great sound quality!!! Would recommend anyone to buy one. For this price, you can't ask for more.

One thing i do want to point out is, you can't press the number buttons to jump to a track when you are in CD mode. Those buttons don't do anything when you press on them. So, say you want to go from track one to track 12, you'll have to press the forward button 12 times to get to track 12.

This car stereo is a great unit, and the price seems better than all the other ones I looked at. I wondered what the catch was, but I was completely satisfied after I had installed the unit. Installation was fairly easy in my '94 Ford Mustang, though the instructions for installation seemed a bit out of order. Other than that, Sony seems to have paid attention to what customers (or at least this one) want in a car stereo.
