5.0 out of 5 stars I am amazed!, January 6, 2009

By	Jimmy L. Wilbanks (Plano, TX) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I bought this Clarion car stereo as a Christmas gift for my partner. He wanted something simple to use with as few buttons as possible because he is a technophobe. After comparing this to several other double-din models from JVC and others, I decided to go with this since the layout is very simple and easy to understand. I installed it in his 2002 Tacoma pickup (I used to install car stereos professionally and I really would not recommend it for a novice.) The install went very smoothly and the factory brackets for the Tacoma stereo were a perfect match for the Clarion with no modification. After the install was done, I popped in the Josh Groban Christmas CD and I was stunned by the volume and clarity even with the Tacoma's factory speakers. It literally sounded like a cathederal and all of the small nuances and sense of space was amazing. I could not believe it, but the Clarion reproduced the kettle drums and big bass without the need for an extra amp. The bass actually made my pants leg shake and even made different parts of the truck rattle with no subwoofer! If you want to upgrade your factory stereo and you have a double din opening, I would absolutely recommend this stereo to anyone. For less than $200.00 you get a very nice unit that is very easy to understand, has some very nice e.q. settings, a very sensitive radio, and some really incredible sound quality. The unit is also very upgradable if you want to add XM radio, you can, it supports USB and MP3 and has outputs for adding on extra amps or anything else. It also looks quite cool when it is lit up, it has neat blue lights that look very tasteful and high tech. It also has a hookup to the factory dimmer and you can change the contrast of the display to allow for the best view to the driver's seat.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great value... a couple of flaws, November 15, 2008

By	S. Bergeron "sylvainber" (Oswego, IL USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I recently replaced the stock unit in my pontiac vibe with this model. It's one of the best values i could find

pros:
* great radio reception (i'm an NPR fan)
* great CD playback
* aux jack for mp3 player
* plays music off a usb stick (plug in the stick to the extension cable and playback starts automatically... note: the usb cable --included-- plugs into the back of the radio and can be routed to lie in the glove box, out of sight... it is better than a dedicated front mounted usb port: no stick sticking out of radio's front panel to get knocked off)

i coupled this radio with polk db-650 speakers and dynamat pads and wow...

cons:
* the screen has a very reflective surface so if the sun hits it at all, you can't read it... if anyone knows of a compatible anti-glare screen overlay... let me know :). This is worse when the sunroof is open...
* no power button... you have to hold the SRC button to turn on (easy) and off (a bit tricky while driving... if you hold it longer than the couple seconds clarion tells you to... the radio goes off... and back on immediately)

the fact that the unit fills the double height opening in my Vibe's dashboard was a plus too

so based on performance: 5 stars
minus a star for the sreen... that is really bad for a radio sold in 2008

5.0 out of 5 stars The Clarion 2 Din Receiver is a great product, April 22, 2009

By	Ken "Music Lover" (Columbus, GA USA) - See all my reviews

I bought the Clarion a month ago and I am very pleased with it. I took it to someone to have it installed. He installed it in no time and I was off and running. My wife loves the mp3 hook-up. We went on a trip to FL and that is all we listened to comercial free and all the songs we loved. I enjoy the cd player as well.. Good product for a very reasonable price.
