JVC K-series model 111.

Nothing real fancy, but sounds good, and it's got a line input for my PS2.

I'm using the Kenwood KDC-992. its motorized flip down with a keyboard syle keypad and a large lcd screen. its the highest trim you can get from kenwood before going to DVD screen based units. It features a 5.0 volt output with front/rear/non-fade/and an auxillary input in case you want to hook up some multi-media. it plays mp3's/cd/cdr. it has dynamic sound stage, SRS WOW, built in 5ch EQ, a bunch of security features, remote, a shiet load of graphics. its a cool looking peice and the feautures are awesome. if you want one, PM me and i could maybe hook you up with one. they normally retail for $600...but i could get it to you for cheaper.

i could go look threw a bunch of registered members profiles but its more fun and easier to do it this way. this way people can tell me if they like it and give a little info on it, which is nice.

I got the same unit, its nice but for some reason after I had it installed, the bass sucks now. Also mines look like yours with the radio sticking out a bit. I think it would look more hidden with the trim around it but I havent got to play with it some more.

i have the Panasonic CQ802U that i bought from someone on here..it;s the ghost face one where the panel goes black when u turn it off and has a touchpad lcd screen. it's got 5 oscilloscope graphics which are pretty cool, i like the sound features they have though. aside from the normal treble, bass, left, right, front, back, controls, it has settings for the subwoofer gain leve, a built in crossover, and an additional bass "booster". there's also 3 5v outlets and 1 aux input which should be good once i get more stuff..

it sounds great though, since im not powering my normal speakers with an amp, the boost from 22w rms to 25w rms was amazing, u can definately hear the difference.

lovin this thing
