(5 out of 5) by Ashley Broomfield on Aug 19, 2007 (Everett, WA)Great deck for the price. As the other person said i mainly bought the deck for the front USB adapter. Have a mini usb port for my zen that works awesome for it. Its a 30gb so it takes about 45 secs to index the files, but that is to be expected when you get to larger size. Works with my mp3 playing phone which has mini usb, and its incredibly affordable. Good all around

Great unit ...with a couple of minor gripes
(4 out of 5) by kimana on Jun 10, 2007Very nice deck for thumbdrives. Sound quality so good, it scared me: when I played an Hawaiian slack key guitar tune (192kbps MP3), it sounded like the musician was seated next to me! CD and tuner sound fine, tho I seldom use them. Very easy installation.
The USB interface is the primary reason I purchased this unit. Unlike many other decks, it makes quick work of reading a 4Gig thumbdrive (about 10 secs or so to index about 70 folders/600 files), and when the USB hasn't been removed, it recovers the index in just a few secs.
One gripe: when scrolling through the folders, it doesn't display folder names until after the selection starts playing.
Other gripe: no case for the faceplate, just a cheap felt bag. Fortunately, I had another case from the old deck.
