JVC KS-AX6500

Advantages: very easy setup
Disadvantages: no control from front

...have owned one of these JVC in car amplifiers for nearly a year now and found it very easy to set up with a proper amp wiring kit and have had nothing but good quality sound while using it. As its a JVC it is well constructed. The casing is made from metal and there is a silver plastic part on the front. It has a max power out put of 600w. 4 channel outputs which means you could power two sets off speakers with it(150w per speaker) it is also ...
...your thinking about buying an amplifier i would definatly recommend JVC as they are well built, look smart and stylish and they are quite easy to wire up(if your not sure about wiring it) it comes with full insructions to help you on your way. Hope this is of help. ...

Review of JVC KSAX6500 AMP

Great looking and good sound

Advantages: Good looking, good sound.
Disadvantages: Face doesn't come off, no mp3 connection.

I've had this stereo for 6 years and I love it. It is easy to install, looks good and has a great sound. The TFT display is clear and there are some good graphics on there (I normally have the one on the display picture). It plays mp3 discs but does not have a mp3 jack to connect your ipod/mp3 player which these days is a downside. The only real negative is that the face doesn't come off. It comes with a cover but I don't think that's fooling even ...
...code for security though. It comes with a remote for people in the back to use or to change over when you're listening outside the car but other than that I can't see the point in it. All in all a very good stereo and I'm glad I bought it. ...

Review of Sony CDX-M 1000 TF

Never mind the iPod and bluetooth

Advantages: Sleek, excellent audio, good navigation
Disadvantages: No blue tooth and iPod support

To my mind Sony is the safest when you are considering sound systems and there is no doubt that these guys does pioneering jobs as far as audio systems are concerned. I have always been against having a sound system fixed in my car because it tends to make me too cozy and vulnerable to possible mishaps. But ultimately I was able to convince myself that okay some times, if not always, you do require a music player on your loco specially when on long ...
...to keep my faith on Sony and decided to go for Sony CDX-GT620U. First thing that is very impressive about this mp3 player is its sleek and gorgeous looks. Impressed I dug into its features and here it is for you: >·Detachable faceplate ·>DRIVE-S gives extended durability of the CD drive ·>52 W x4 S-MOSFET amplifier ·>CD/CD-RW/mp3/WMA/ATRAC (from USB only)/AAC playback ·>USB input for easy playback of digital music ·>3 Segment LCD display for clear ...

Review of Sony CDX-GT620U

So far so good

Advantages: Cheap, easy to use
Disadvantages: Needs an external aerial to get full advantage (in my case anyway)

...so I went for a Pure Highway, as previously stated these take up more space on the windscreen with cables everywhere. I came up with the solution of fitting it into my centre console armrest, out of sight, open the cover to change channels, luckily my armrest has a 12V socket & a Aux in so I don't have to use the FM transmitter. Unfortunately the aerial cable was too short so I bought a 2.5mm connector 2m extension cable off e-bay. I tried the windscreen ...
...had 99.99% success rate the pure is more like 75% tbh, often dropping signal in built up areas, I've now ordered an external aerial in the hope that will improve mattersas it could be down to the windows in the Avensis blocking the signal. Great bit of kit, take your time installing it especially if you don't want cables everywhere. Also I did read somewhere not to plug/unplug the aerial while powered on as it has been reported that it could damage ...

Review of Pure Digital Highway IN-CAR DAB Tuner

Superb value with high specification

Advantages: Highly specified, excellent sound, great price
Disadvantages: Average looking, lowish power rating

...get over the fact that Mutant is not the most well known brand out there and you are not driven by having the Pioneer, Sony, Alpine etc then you will realise this is an absolute bargain. I picked this up for £80 after considering an equally specified Pioneer for £220. I was expecting to get what I paid for, but have been pleasantly suprised. Its killer feature is the Bluetooth functionality. It comes with a microphone and lets you make/ receive call ...
...music from your bluetooth (A2DP enabled) mobile phone and this works really well. If thats not enough it can take SD/MMC memory cards and USB sticks as well as CD. It will however only read up to 2GB SD card but will take up to 8GB USB sticks. I almost forgot, the despite only having 40w power rating this produces a really good solid sound and runs my infinity components (front) and Pioneer 6x9 (rear) really well. Its has been commented that it appears ...
