Update: keep in mind 50 watts x4 peak power. And 22x4 normal conditions. Sorry but with 6 speakers in my minivan…. It’s not all that loud. There are times I’d really appreciate more sound amplification. At $120 for this, I’d expect better. The one I bought 10 years ago, another JVC unit, I paid the same and got way more power. Hey, this is still a great stereo for a budget. Even better if you’ve an amp to bump sound up a few notches. But overall had I known this, I’d have looked elsewhere. JVC you actually managed to disappoint me here. SELLER: if you’re reading this, make more clear it’s actual output please. ;)

The radio reception is flawless.
I have a coby mp300 MP3 player which is slightly larger than a memory stick. I can plug it (with no batteries) directly on the USB port and then use the Stereo's buttons to play through the songs.
When the car is turned off and then on, the stereo continues where it left off - this works both with the CD and USB.
The remote is functional, though I rather use the Stereo directly.
The default display is a DEMO mode, which could be turned off via the directions provided in the documentation.
The documentation is clear, but is provided on a newspaper type of paper.
This item has many other features which I have not yet used.
I used a Metra 99-7892 Dash Kit and a Metra 70-1720 Wiring Harness to install it in a 96 Accord.
The faceplate comes off in case you park your car in a less than desirable area.
The only thing missing is SD card input, but giving the price I paid for this (about $67), I can not complain at all.
I highly recommend this item.
Reviewed in the United States on February 29, 2020
The only thing I can say I have seen is that it does freeze sometimes. Like if I am changing the station a lot or something like that, I have noticed it freezing or lagging. Which can be annoying, but it usually only does it for a few seconds then it goes back to running the way it should be.
