Dear all,
I have a Jeep Grand Cherokee 4.0 L 1993 with a Jensen AM/FM/CD player. My problem is being in Europe, because the FM receivers tuning step is not compatible with the European standarts. Is it possible to change the receivers tuning policy with a key combination? Or how is it possible?

Hey brian, i was once going to purchase that player but did some info and found out that, yeah its good for the price, but it is in some ways cheap. Go to circuitcity.com, mobile video, and then find the jensen and look at the reveiws and that should answer all your questions.

Yeah I was reading those reviews too and saw alot about the knobs being weak but like they say I guess you shouldn't worry just don't lose the remote and tell your friends to stop touchin everything.\

It does look good on paper and have a GREAT price for what you get, however I still can't get past the fact that its a jensen. Still, I won't knock it till I try it, so i'll be looking for a display unit to play with at circuit city.
If it is up to par I might just spring for it. Seeing as I own a eclipse HU with 8v pre outs, I have pretty high standards. I just need to see the screen to really judge what it can do.

Well, ive actually seen it, and i think it looks awesome, just as good as any other, and better than some others. BUT the fact that its a Jensen is what kills me....i think its a good price i guess. I was gonna get it, until i found a killer deal that i couldnt pass up on another. I say go for it dude. Get a warranty and if u dont like it, bring it back.

I don't really know too much about stuff as brands go....besides the fact that alpine is GREAT (well it is from my experiences with it) so what's wrong with jensen? Have they been known to make cheap equipment or something?

Yes, they have been known to make cheap stuff,they are kinda like Pyle or something, not a very good quality. They may beat or yor HU may work great for the first 2 months, and then.........BANG it breaks, but sh1t man, if it were me, i would go ahead and buy it. Get a WARRANTY.........

No, do not disconnect the pink wire, but rather, splice to the black wire or the ground and the unit will operate normally.

I did some research and asked someone who has been in this business for over 15 years (Vortex in Union, NJ). He told me that Jensen is made by Audiovox. The brand name also bothered me being that I am a Pioneer user for all my cars. He stood behind this product, and his customers who bought this unit from him are satisfied and love this model!

i just got this installed in my civic and i luv it. like others here mention, get the warranty and you shouldnt worry bout much. the one thing i have noticed as a flaw is that the screen gets stuck on its way out/in at times....not all the time, but maybe once a week or so for me. since i have the four year warranty, circuit city has since put in a new one. sound is gr8, pic is gr8.....price is what drove me to get it. overall, i am very satisfied with it.

i hate to say it but this is the stupidest piece of shyt i've EVER bought, the knobs are definitely weak, i press any button and it goes to mute, the volume knob doesn't work at all, i try to turn it down and it turns up even more, then i lost the remote so that's even worse so now i'm tryin to find a remote to buy, if anyone knows where i can buy one lemme know please. price is good, quality bad, i'm a pioneer or alpine user.

One thing no one here has mentioned is the the VM9510 is a 1.15 MEGAPIXEL screen just like the ALPINE IVAD901 radio has but isnt $2300...That means the screen resolution is 3x better than EVERY other company on the market..The VM9510 has out sold PIONEER,ALPINE,KENWOOD and ECLIPSE combined...So ,you do get what you pay for.You paid for the #1 selling MM unit on the market for 8 months straight...

it outsold, because it is a cheaper unit, not for the quality. and as far as screens are, there are different levels of screens, A, B, C, etc, i bet the cheaper units use a c or below screen. And the features that is offered is a big difference in these units....
