This unit is a great buy at less than $100. Tons of features, aux input works great has a separate volume for the aux input as well as switchable RCA jacks from full spectrum to sub woofer only with adjustable low pass filter. Remote is a little larger than i would like to see but it works great. Sound quality is very good and power output fantastic. I would highly recommend this unit to anyone wanting to replace a factory unit or an older unit.

Receiver works great and does everything it says it does. Very easy to install and setup yourself. Gets good FM and great AM reception. Aux and mp3 features work flawlessly, although I have not tested the WMA function. Display looks somewhat dim against bright light, but that was not a big concern. Overall this unit makes an excellent replacement for a stock receiver. Not to mention the great price and brand name.

As others have said about the Kenwood KDC-MP142, the price and output from this receiver makes this a great buy! I was only looking for something to plug my iPod directly into my in-dash unit but I got more than just that. I had an Eclipse Audio receiver (which I was not very happy with) and then put this Kenwood in and WOW what a difference. The sound is MUCH cleaner and gets much better reception from radio stations that I could not get very clearly with the previous unit. I had Polk Audio speakers installed with the old receiver and they are just now really getting full use of their potential with the Kenwood receiver. If I had it to do over I would have gotten a Kenwood or Alpine receiver like I should have to begin with. If you need a quality replacement (with an AUX plug for MP3 players to boot) for a factory unit or a less than stellar unit, give this one a shot.

I would have been happy with this cd player paying the MSRP, but the discounted price is very nice. Easy to use displays cd information. Pushes my subwoofer very hard, sound clean.

Great product, easy install, with great sound. Fast delivery and great price for this quility radio.
