I brought this radio before Christmas so it would be compatable with my Pioneer Sirius Radio. Although it is an older unit (with a cassette player - and I do have cassettes), I really love the...
Good sound, nice features, compact size. Sometimes the iPod controls don't seem to work as expected, but I don't know if it's an issue with the Sony or the iPod.
If you are looking to upgrade your factory radio with something that will make it easy to plug-in your iPod this is a great unit. It costs a fraction of what you might pay for a factory iPod...
Drivers looking for affordable, as-standard iPod connectivity in their car stereos are finding an ever-increasing array of options. Following the Jensen MP6612i , the JVC KD-PDR30 , and its own...
I purchased this head unit to replace my failing Clarion head unit that I've had for roughly 5 years. I am glad I picked this one. This thing is AWESOME. It was an easy install and it came with a...
I will only go into how horrible the USB interface is. It does not allow you to navigate up/down a directory tree when using a USB memory stick. For example your directory tree looks like the...
Installed in 04 Maxima SE. Wired it up, then spent 3 hours trying to understand the functions. Computer to car, then car to computer. Alpine make a paper manual! Love the rotary knob.......thats...
I couldn't be happier! I was having a hard time deciding which radio to go with. All of my Nautiques have come with Clarion radios and we have never been happy with them. I figured it was time for...
Good but you can't keep the display as you want it it keeps reverting to the standard face and you need to hit a button to see what time it is other than that it does everything i wanted it to.
I bought this unit to replace my casette deck in my 2002 Tundra. Super easy to replace. Before you order your unit, check to see if the factory mounts can be re-used - I bought a mounting kit that...
I've had this unit for almost a year now. I primarily purchased this head unit to use its bluetooth features. Unfortunately, the built-in stereo bluetooth does not work very well. The mono...
I have a Pioneer BT8000 (with HD) in my 2003 Subaru Forester with the upgraded Subaru speakers and sub woofer. I also added the ipod cable for my daughter.
Looks and works great in my Toyota Tacoma. Alot of reviews say the interface/controls are hard to learn. I found it to be no problem. Read through the manual once and quickly figured it out....
I'm very happy with this radio. The sound is great, works perfectly with my phone via bluetooth. The design is amazing as is the OEL display. The only nag is that I didn't notice that the american...
I have purchased Pioneer for a couple of decades and have always been pleased with my purchases until I recently installed this head unit in my vehicle. Main reasons for purchase was the Pioneer...
Today's car stereos can be about more than just music. Take Pioneer's DEH-P9800BT CD/MP3 player, for instance. It's packed with all the high-end audio features you'd expect from Pioneer like MP3,...
I have a 1995 Buick (real sharp, eh? But no monthly payments!) and the tape deck died. I also have a huge collection of cassette tapes, so I wanted a unit that would play them as well as CDs. My...
I purchased this JVC unit in November 2008. Istallation required a wiring harness that was not supplied for my vehicle so had to spend another $15.00 which was not really a big deal. As far as...
Very dissapointed with the Ipod selection screen. Im swapping this for the Fusion unit which has a scroll wheel and feels just like the Ipod. Also it won't take you two hours of clicking the next...
Overall it's a nice stereo, sounds good, handles CD's (including CD-R's and CD-RW's) and USB memory sticks just fine. Folder navigation through a big USB thumbdrive with a lot of songs works well....
I bought this to replace the OEM head unit in my VW Passat, on the recommendation of crutchfield. I wanted a unit that could play CDs (including mp3 and aac formats) as well as something that...
Well I had an issue with the other KDC-590, the faceplate wouldnt work, then I couldnt use the flash usb drive, so I sent it in, and they couldnt fix it. By the way I have an 2001 Chevy Tahoe... So...
I'm sure not many people expect to get excellent sound out of a head unit alone. Most buy amps, speakers and subs to build a complete sound system. I, however, have never intended to spend 4...
This is an excellent radio. I replaced the stock receiver in my F150 Larait supercrew with this model. It has so many features. I have a Rockford Fosgate amp that is 20 years old, with no low pass...
I purchased this unit strictly for the USB input, planning to connect 4GB+ flash drive with enough music to satisfy my needs. I dont own (or have a use for) an iPod, so keep that in mind as you...
I bought this radio and had it installed about a month ago. So far i have really enjoyed it (but i guess anything is better than the stock receiver) The in-stereo ipod controls are a little...
I had higher expectations for this item. Your Ipod goes in the glove box which has it's pros and cons but you can't change the playlist unless you disconnect the ipod and reconnect it. That makes a...
Pros: good sound with ease of use Cons: no usb and sd card slot good value for money product, Lookswise this is average, good sound quality, extremely easy to understand functuns especially when...
Bought this unit to replace an aging Pioneer. Sold by the neat look, features, and JVC's reputation. Was very pleased when first installed but after a few weeks, the CD started failing. It does...
While the JVC-PDR30 works great with the 1st or 2nd generation Ipod Nano, it does NOT work with the Ipod Touch or the Iphone. This isn't JVC's fault. At the time this unit was released, it did...
The JVC KD-PDR30 is a car stereo designed specifically for use with iPods. Its simple design and straightforward interface make it easy to plug in and play--but navigating through iPod libraries is...
This unit is near perfect. I will hit on its points one by one. The Ipod control is superb. The wheel works EXACTLY like your Ipod wheel except that instead of pressing it in to select, you press...
I didnt have high expectations when I ordered this based on the price and all. It was as I imagined mostly. Decent sound, my only problem is with the functionality of the unit. Maybe im just one...
Dual XDMA690: iPod Control is Clunky and Complicated
First off, the POSITIVE: Great price, much better sound through factory speakers, and nice clean look in the dash. Installation, as usual, was pretty easy, with all the gear Crutchfield includes...
This unit is exellent for the money. The only downsides are one, the display does not show all info from ipod at once. Two, navigation through ipod is cumbersome and will take a lot of getting...
I ordered this radio to replace the factory head unit in my wife's 4Runner. I have bought several car systems from Crutchfield in the past, and hoped this experience would be similar to those, easy...
