Poor support and design

(1 out of 5) by Matt Beazer on Oct 27, 2006 (Spokane WA USA)
The unit sounds decent, but although it's rated for 55w/channel peak, it's only 17w RMS. The display lighing is extremely bright, and cannot be dimmed. In my car it's so bright it illuminates the headliner of my car and on a dark road can ruin my night vision if I look at it for more than a glance. When the faceplate folds down, it directs the light straight into my eyes (1998 Dodge Neon). I contacted e-mail tech support to see if there was any way to dim it, and received an unintelligable broken english reply:

"Thank you for your e-mail. Please be advice that we don't have a dimmer to dinner this don't on this model."

Also note that the included wiring harness uses 20 guage aluminum wire, so even if it does put out the 220w rated it probably can't output it through the wiring provided.

Avoid this unit. I'd avoid the entire brand considering the design flaws I saw when installing and using the unit.
