perfect, simple, small by michael thomas on amazon.com May 24, 2012
Installed the head unit about 2 weeks ago and have had no issues with it whatsoever. Very simple head unit to play music from your phone/ipod/any mp3 player or anything. And much much lighter and smaller then the stock head unit. I am very pleased with ...
 
Does the job well. by David Canas on amazon.com May 21, 2012
I love this thing because it's not super flashy, meaning it doesn't catch the attention of every car jacker out there. It's moderately easy to use, and is definitely packed with features. It surpassed my expectations, which was a simple replacement for ...
 
Car Stereo by S. England "Steve" on amazon.com Apr 16, 2012
This is the best purchase I have ever made. CD's are on there way out and this the perfect solution to replace your old CD player with something that is so easy to use. CD's skip and warp so why waste your money purchasing old technology. You can use ...
 
Kawasaki Concours 14 by PaulnBama on amazon.com Jun 9, 2012
Installed this on a Kawasaki Concours 14 motorcycle. The bike comes with a digital clock so I won't be using the one on the head and can't comment on it. I modded a console/cover for the Boss 612UA and needed a shallow depth player. So I opted for this ...
 
Awesome budget stereo by Elliot J. Goldstein "elliotG" on amazon.com Apr 24, 2012
I am 50 years old, and I'm not an audiophile. However, I needed a basic stereo to replace the stock stereo that died in my 95 Camaro convertible. The Boss has alot of features you would not expect in a budget unit. The clock sucks, but other than that ...

Very Dissapointed by JDPennington on amazon.com Jul 1, 2012
Product description sounded good and was very affordably priced and I really like the idea of not having to keep physical music discs on hand because I've had them stolen from my car on occasion so I purchased this unit with those things in mind.I have ...
 
WORST STEREO EVER! by cmarie on amazon.com Jun 27, 2012
This was honestly the worst stereo I have ever bought in my life. First, there were "shipping issues" and I got it one week late, then the moment I put it in my car, I turned it on and listened to one song on volume 2 then the stereo just went out and never worked since. Never buy!
 
Was good for a while until it died by firejackal on amazon.com Apr 19, 2012
EDIT: As of 4/23/12, exactly a week of owning the product, it has died on me; the unit won't turn on, and all the fuses are still good. So under this assumption, something internally died out. (to prevent anything about my system, the old radio still ...
 
It didn't fit by Alexandra Ivanova on amazon.com Apr 11, 2012
I can't really comment on the quality because I never connected it. It didn't fit in the space designated for the radio in my car. I found that very weird, I assumed all stereos were a certain size, but I guess not.
 
Its not working by MZN on amazon.com Apr 8, 2012
I've received the item, it wasn't broken or damaged, the packing was pretty good but it won't power on. I've tried so many times, but the receiver panel blinks once when I plug the power and turned off. On the back of the item, there was a small handwriting ...
