This replaced a decent but old Alpine deck in my car. First time I turned the clarion on I was very impressed with the immediate improved sound stage and warmth. Out of the box it was a 10x improvement. With crossovers enabled its that much better....
For the price this is a great stocking stuffer.

I thought about trying out that new Parrot radio on Crutchfield but after reading the reviews it looks like its not so hot. I’ve always gone with Kenwood gear, so I think I’ll do the same for my wagon now.

guess it would depend on price

I just wonder if it is easier to look at a LCD or a PIN display? I like the functions of both, I just don’t want to regret getting the LCD and not be able to look at in in certain lighting angles
if it don’t blow black...take it back.

I was looking for a bluetooth radio specifically. For $118 I don't think it can be beat.
