Strengths: Capability of WMA, Quality sounds, Good touch feeling (except pushing VOL knob), Easy to use SQ
Weaknesses: VOL knob pushing feeling is cheap. Reading time for WMA CD for the first time takes longer than I expected (10 or more seconds)
Summary: The sound is wonderful, even I use relatively cheap speakers (Lightning Audio 4" 2way and 6.5" 3way). This unit drives these low efficient (86dB/m) speakers very well. My car is 12 yrs old Toyota tercel, but vital saxophone and tight base sounds reach to my ears beyond road noise. There is nothing to say for Normal CD. Compared to uncompressed CD, WMA playback for Jazz is much better than I expected. Rock guitar sound becomes too mild for me with WMA.

Strengths: one of the best decks i ever come across. SQ - sound quality rocks and the option to choose the type of music rocks.
Weaknesses: None. when i add the JBLs speakers and the Fosgate woofer then i will see if there is a weakness which i highly doubt.
Summary: i have been a fan of pioneer for years. But when i install this deck in my truck i was like wow. You can hear the music so clear and enriched. i can't wait to add some Amps and 2 8inch subwoofer to this baby and hear the great sound quailty. :)

Strengths: Easy installation that really needs no pre-amp to get, full sound.
Weaknesses: Some confusion in various literature concerning whether or not it has MP3/WMA capability...which it does.
Summary: The equipment arrived in well packaged box with no damage. The internet-based store, Sound Domain.com, included an installation kit and adapter harness free. This makes the installation much easier and should adapt to most situations. Sound is great, MP3's play fine and the FM tuner is very strong. Overall, a very good value.

Strengths: Sound quality. Ability to play MP3, WMA for this price range. Cute remote control.
Weaknesses: No major weakness found so far...
Summary: I received it 3 days ago and installed it on my friend's car with ease. Her car also has an amp and a sub in the trunk and after I powered the unit, I was stunned with the sound quality -- both clarity and the bass from the back. Radio tuner tunes well and strong. The display is easily read. The small remote control looks cute and is practical, although a little hard to push on buttons because it's small and thin, but nothing major. A quick personal note is that, compared to an Alpine one that was stolen out of the car, I thought the display on this one would be a bit more colorful and would have bars showing the volume level. People might reply that, well, you already see how it would display in the picture; but I thought I might be able to customize it to make it look different, not just like that all the time. But again, this is minor and the sound quality far outweights these little things that I personally expected (or I might be expecting too much!). That's why I give it 5 stars

I do not see any major weakness now. To conclude, you will be pleased with the quality it delivers for this price range.
