"This radio was just what I was looking for! One that Looks really good, sounds brilliant!! The only thing is that the radio was that good I needed to buy some more speakers after I blow the ones in the car!! Now up dreaded to some (slick6) speakers perched in halfords goes really well with the radio. 10 out of 10 for both products!...."

Pros: usb connectivity, ipod connectivity, listening position optimisation, wide range of eq options
Cons: bright blue leds unable to be switched off, would benefit from bluetooth connectivity, not the nicest looking of car stereos
"Installed fairly easily.
Addition of iPod connectivity the reason why you would get this - very good and useable.
USB connection excellent for listening to music from MP3 player but also simply as a replacement for a dodgy 12v connection, to charge your phone.
EQ options very wide-ranging; the adjustable items (high-pass, low-pass etc.) do go beyond what most would truly utilise, but you can ignore these and the sound is excellent.
Another great feature is the ability to change the listening position to optimise phase from speakers.
On the downside, the controls have a very bright blue LED behind them which cannot be turned off; this is not ideal for nighttime driving, but is no major deal-breaker."

Pros: usb connectivity, the sheer price!
Cons: non at this price
"Stunning value for features & overall connectivity (I have yet to see a similar value "branded" player of this spec for the same money. This is especially so due to the special offer which meant that the overall cost including installation came to less than the already discounted offer for the player to start with! I am now one happy chappy with the sounds to match!
Beat that for value!

Pros: iphone connection, different settings, charges iphone as well
"Got this radio to replace the original one that was in my micra and I absolutely love it, I am able to connect my iPhone and run my music through the radio which makes driving in hot weather amazing as I can have my music blasting with the windows down and get a good sound quality compared to the old transmitter I used to have which had some radio interference sometimes. Would recommend this product without a doubt well worth the money!!"

"I bought the Sony on impulse after seeing the discount that Halfords were offering. I've been really impressed with it so far. Sony are a class name, and I like the quality of the unit. CD sound is clear, iPOD linking is easy and the radio has some great tuning features. The fact that it cost less than half RRP and it was easy to fit (saving me £30 from halfords!) was a massive bonus. And it was ready to collect within 1 hr of ordering online."

"Really please with this product. Great features, such as enhanced sound options & good equalizer and all really easy to get used. Radio great, CD player great and iPod display shows all your track names and artist names too. When connected, you can easily move from track to track, album to album etc. I'd certainly recommend this. Good price too ! Everything I wanted at the right price.
Really good advice and attention from Halfords, prior to me buying it. I also paid to have it fitted by Halfords and they were really quick and efficient.
