4.0 out of 5 stars Great deal, May 27, 2009

This is a great deck. I was skeptical because of the price but it has been great. The sd slot is awsome. You can put 100s of songs on it insert it and the remote controls everything and all info is displayed on the deck. I only have 2 negatives which is the tuner is not very good. I had a Sony before and it picked up 10 times better. And it doesnt have much power. But I put an amp on it and its great. I don't think you can beat it for the money though.

3.0 out of 5 stars you get what you pay for, September 25, 2009

I couldn't find a whole lot of reviews of this product when I was shopping so I'm making it a point to review it for future shoppers.
First things first. There are several websites that state that this is a CD-R player. I can assure you that there is NO CD player on this unit. It is strictly SD card, USB, and radio.
I also found one owners manual that stated how to remove the detachable face. well there is no "detachable face" its a one piece unit.
The first thing I noticed when I pulled it out of the box is that it is extremely light. (I'm thinking cheaply made) it may be however that it just doesn't have a cd player in there to weigh it down i don't know.
After a couple days of use, I have decided that it is pretty cheaply made, the volume knob is grinding and i can feel considerable resistance on parts of the rotation. It is also kind of loose or wabbly. (technical term)
Another downside I've found is that I can't search tracks or directories in USB mode like I thought I was going to be able to do. So now I've got like 600 songs on a flash drive plugged into it and the only thing I can do is skip ahead by 1 track or skip ahead by 10 tracks at a time. It does list what the song title is and the directory that it's in but I can't search through the directories at all.
There are a couple different owners manuals for this thing. One is on pyles website, but it's different than the one that came with my unit. The one on plyles websites gives detailed intructions on how to search through directories, (which doesn't work) and on my manual there is no indication of how to do so.
But when i press the button to search for tracks i do get a "trk srch" display, but when i turn the volume knob to actually search through them (as per pyles website) the only thing that happens is the volume goes up :)
It seems to be a decent unit for the price. $73 plus shipping so i can't complain too much. radio and weather band work as described. I haven't plugged an sd card in there yet so i can't comment on that function.
if you have questions before purchasing and want an actual owners answer email me at foehammer at citcom net
I purchased this unit mainly for the "marine" aspect of it because it's going in my jeep wrangler that often sees some stray water inside of the vehicle. we'll see how it holds up.
