Summary
I shopped around for a car CD Changer that plays mp3s, reads CDRWs, holds a lot of CDs, and works via RF. This is easily the best one. I'll start with the installation. This product installs easily. I drive a little Nissan Sentra and had plenty...
Strength
Easily installed. Lots of features. Inexpensive.
Weakness
Ugly control display. Sound is not great, but acceptable.
Like you've got any other options in this category.

Summary
Im surprised no one has written a review of this unit yet, as it is one of the only MP3 add-on changers available, and at one of the lowest prices. I bought it for an Acura Legend whose stock Alpine-made changer was dying. Rather than buying an exact r...
Strength
Good value and works great. Intuitive navigation.
Weakness
Flat, unlively sound. Terminator-esque looks. RF unit MUST cram in dash.
Bottom Line
I'd buy it again, (and have) simply because of no other viable options. Sound is lacking, but operation is great.
Was reading the one other review and figured out the reviewer bought the RF version of this and he complained about the sound quality... No kidding, rebroadcast the signal in RF (radio freq) and you expect the sound quality not to suffer? I've owned...
Strength
Everything about the NON RF version (CH-X1500)
Weakness
Can't think of one but then again, I'm not using the CH-X1500RF
Bottom Line
Owned for 6 hard months and haven't had 'Problem One'
This really is a great disc player. I have read mixed reviews of the sound quality but I can say nothing but positive comments about the sound I am getting outta mine. I can discern no difference from this unit (which runs through the fm antennae...
Strength
Sound quality, music format flexibility, JVC quality, cost, and runs through your existing car stereo.
Weakness
The first part of the installation can be a bit tricky.
I bought this to put in my 96 Chevy truck. I didn't want to replace the factory stock radio with some flashy new stereo that would invite someone to break into my truck. I also have not had good luck with removable faceplates, so the cd changer seemed...
Strength
Good Value
Easy Installation
Concealed and upgradeable
No Skipping
Weakness
Trouble finding GM antenna adapter(s)
Slightly less than CD quality sound
I wanted to add MP3-CD playback to my DeVille Factory Radio (the factory radios in the DeVille unfortunately can not be replaced with after market products because of the integration of other vehicle functions with the radio). The only options appear to...
Strength
Sound better than expected; reads MP3 discs quickly and without skipping
Weakness
Too large for Glove Box (Trunk Mount only option); Could use a little more bass
