rating:  review by: Anonymous | I purchased this head unit mainly for the USB capabilities, to then find that they are vastly flawed. For example, you take your USB stick, and upload some albums onto it. One folder for begins with the letter "S" and the other begins with the letter "V". If, two days later you want to upload an album beginning with "S" you'll be forgiven for thinking it is simple. For when you transfer the "S" folder over, this gets placed at the end of the list as the headunit sorts the folder list via time and date as opposed to character! This means if wish to keep your folder-hierarchy in alphabetical order therefore making it easy to search your MP3s you have to transfer all the files over to your computer that are on the USB stick. Then add the one folder to this list, and re-transfer everything over...a very time consuming task if you are using an 8GB USB flash drive! You can probably get around it by creating folders labelled A-Z, and then only re-transferring the artists that you are effecting into these folders, but you shouldn't have to! It is such a shame, as it is a very beautiful unit, CD player works perfectly, radio is crystal clear, the multi-function wheel makes it easy to change radio station/tracks while you keep your eyes on the road, the USB load up time is great, and would in all respects be worth 4.5/5 or 5/5, but for the very obvious design flaw that they've let creep in I've had to knock off 2 stars. | |

rating:  review by: Rob | People only ever complain about bad customer service and rarely report when everything went smoothly. CAC provided excellent, efficient service and are good communicators, so you always if there is a problem with your order quickly, and they resolve problems quickly. Just installed this player and it is excellent. A USB cable is supplied and you can plug an ipod USB cable directly in the the provided cable. USB access is lightening fast (loads quicker than a sony unit I bought for my other car!) Menu options and folder listings are awesome! Makes it really easy to find the tracks you want quickly (unlike the sony)! Highly recommended (Car Audio Centre and the head unit!) | |
