Good product , Good quality, Good price
(4 out of 5) by tobyjames on May 2, 2004 (Santa Clarita, CA USA)The Sony CDX-M730 has been a bulletproof source of audio for my vehicle going on 2-years now. I can't say I have any major gripes about the unit but the xm antenna cable(not manufactured by sony)is truly frail! I offroad my vehicle almost daily exposing my sony to severe conditions and have not yet had it fail.
The one time I did manage to make the cd player skip envolved jumping off the top of a 100'+ slipface at pismo beach (going uphill)and landing after 6' of air. I have yet to find a cd that won't play in it unless SEVERLY scratched. The e.q. features are capable of making the worst recording bearable and the xm radio only once stopped working due to ME being in the Sequoia National Forrest (the tree's blocked the view of the satellite). Overall total price with xm hide-away tuner and antenna was a little high at the time I purchased but has come down a great deal. I say Buy It!!!!!!

too much money for what you get
(2 out of 5) by Amazon Customer on May 29, 2003 (Baton Rouge, LA United States)So if you want to listen to the CD you've picked out with no problems, this is not the stereo for you. I have had this stereo for about a year and am so ready to get rid of it. Yeah, sure it looks cool with the sleek black cover and the flip down face. But this is my problem, the stereo randomly decides not to play the CD I insert. And it's not certain CD's that won't play, it's a different one every time. I have to reinsert about 20 times before the stereo will play my CD, and it happens pretty often. It is soooo aggravating. When I first realized this problem I sent it in and the company sent it back saying that there was nothing wrong. So I basically have to live with it. I definately wouldn't pay this much money for this CD player.
