    It's an amazing deck if you have some bomb speakers to pair with it, I (after installation) found out my after market speakers are so so, need an upgrade haha. The only cons about this is that the typical bass and tremble adjustments are no where to be found, and I am not a big fan of the way the menu is laid out but that is not a huge problem with me ill get over it

    The reviews were amazing which is why I bought it. But, once it was installed, the sound quality isn't all that great. Second, the volume is really low. In order to hear some decent base clarity you have to turn up the volume to 35 out of 50, and once you hit 50 which is the max you want to turn up the volume more, but can't. It's to late to return it and is now just a hassle. I which I still has my Honda Civic 2012 stock radio CD player. I don't recommend this Sony receiver to anyone who is a music/sound buff.

      Hi shawn1720, thank you for taking the time to write a review. We apologize for any disappointment this has caused you. If you’re still with the Sony Radio Faceplate, we would like to recommend to try the steps below:
      - The position of the fader control [FADER] is not set for a 2-speaker system.
      - The volume of the unit and/or connected device is very low.
      Increase the volume of the unit and connected device
      Your feedback is highly appreciated. Regards, Dave Sonystyle
