Pros: great sound
Cons: silly little buttons
"Got this stereo for Christmas and am very happy with it. I listen to talksport a lot and got fed up listening with all the interference. Connected to my external amps and sub the sound is superb. Got me fishing out my old cd's and reliving my youth!
Only moans are the buttons and programming the DAB radio. Also developed an annoying buzzing noise through speakers, took it back and was given a new unit."

Stereo has good sound, it's good looking and lighting is easy on the eye and helpful in the dark, fitted easy and now i can use my ipod!"

Pros: versatility
Cons: instruction manual v. small print
"I wanted a reliable DAB unit with CD and iPod operability. This fulfils my wishes and has the added bonus of FM and AM reception until switchover (around 2015). I can control my iPod from the unit and can connect any other sound source for playback throgh the unit. Build and sound quality excellent. Fitted to my car by Halfords - very professional."

Pros: brlliant
"I am very impressed the sound quality is awesome, The features are brilliant and their are so many of them but the best has to be the MIXTRAX EZ, plug in your ipod or mp3 player and you get yourself a disco going on great in night driving with the multi - colour display going with your mixed tunes. I can't believe the price its a bargain. The dab is i'm sure good in areas that have a strong reception but for my area at the mo its not very good but thats not because of the radio. The radio does show your signal strength which is a nice feature and you can pause live dab GREAT. I would highly recommend but do remember that depending on area your dab might be a little poor until it rolls out in the future."

Pros: the way you can custom the lighting for and color
Cons: very hard to understand manuel to program radio.
"Easy install, Sound is great, Window stick on antenna works fantastic. Dab works perfect. You can custom match the color of your dash lights to the radio. The radio doe's much more then it says on the box. It takes some time to program and the Manuel could explane how to do the programing easier, trail and error you will get there in the end."

Pros: dab radio, usb
"Bought this to replace nightime 5 live football commentaries on appalling medium wave, and it doesn't disappoint! USB capability is handy too. Don't have to load car up with CD's now. Illumination of display and buttons can be made to match other lights in car which is a nice touch. excellent product for the price paid."

The kids love the changing colours. The sound is great with nice bass. Haven't try the DAB yet need to get an aerial."

"I purchased this unit online as a Christmas gift for my boyfriend. I payed for it to be fitted at the Melton Mowbray store. The sound quality is what you'd expect from Pioneer (fab) and the look is great with some funky colour changing as the music plays.
My boyfriend is over the moon with it and has yet to find a fault with it.
Very pleased!"

"Good unit which with a film aerial has really good signal and also allows you to pause live dab which is quite cool but seems pretty useless. Always good to have extra features though"
