Just installed the RFX8230 in my car last night. Im impressed with it so far
THINGS I LIKE: *Knob is nice, tactile and easy to use.. takes a concious effort to push it, so you dont screw up on the road. *SQ is really nice, plenty of midbass *Nice, easy to use, not alot of "junk" on the face *Seperate SEEK and MANUAL buttons.. i like this feature *AUX input, i dont know what ill do with it yet, but ill find out.. hehe MiniDisc?? *Sub output, *Disc titling, Station Titling *Remote Control has FULL FEATURES, big enough not to lose, small enough not to be cumbersome *Display easy to read, even in sunlight
THINGS I DONT LIKE: *Eject button tiny, on the wrong side.. whats up with this!? *Clock stays on full time, reverts back to clock, (you can program this to stay on what you change it to, but... still... ya know?) *The remote control is hard as hell to operate, buttons are slow to respond.. and small *Preout voltage seems a little light, had to turn my amps gains up, from my Pioneer 6000.. *Wire harness is a BITCH.. Damn big black boxes with more wires sticking out of it!.. make all wires the same length, with NO big obstructions on the harness, ugh
TO CONCLUDE: so far, i love this deck..... works great, great sounding deck, actually have to turn the treble down, it has A LOT clarity to it..i would reccomend it to anyone looking to get a damn good deck at a damn good price ($176 shipped from crutchfield)
Thanks for reading, offer any input or thoughts you may have, or any questions, ill try to answer them accordingly (yeah, sure.. as if i really know what im talking about..) Ryan
